Teaching and Learning with Technology
TLT is a diverse and experienced team of learning innovators who discover, create, and advance technologies with the aim of transforming teaching and learning in positive and enduring ways.
We are part of the University Libraries. As an enterprise level unit, we serve the entire Commonwealth – every college and campus.
Relationships are our currency. We partner with other administrative units, consult with individual faculty, and collaborate with campus leaders and many others whose work centers on student success, either directly or indirectly. We also work directly with students to support their multimedia projects in assignments we co-develop with faculty.
