Our Turning Point Audience Response System allows students to actively participate in classes and presentations. Faculty can gauge learning on the fly with in-class feedback and display anonymous results in real time.

Poll Everywhere

Poll Everywhere, a web based polling solution, is the campus app for polling; clickers are not required. Students can submit responses via web browser, mobile app or text message; student ONYEN login is required for polls that are not anonymous. Check out Poll Everywhere.

Faculty are increasingly integrating technology into our classrooms and students are expecting an up to date classroom experience. Many studies conclude that faculty members continue to find ways to use technology that benefit both their fields of study and improving student learning. As newer technologies become increasingly more popular, a desire to incorporate them as learning tools will begin to mount in the name of good “instructional technology” practices. Staff in Academic Technology continue to bring known technology through our Lunch and Learn series where faculty share their approaches to introduce new technology. Staff also research emerging technology while attending national conferences, online seminars and consulting with peer Business Schools.

Lunch time sessions coordinated by Academic Technology where faculty share with other faculty their approaches to use of newer technologies.
