IT and Media Services

The classroom technology used on the Waterbury Campus is a routine part of a students’ school experience. Technology plays an important role in attracting students to the subject matter. Students and faculty are more likely to become engaged when technology is embedded in the classroom. Students who have access to technology will use these tools to explore topics and will be engaged in a greater variety of roles during the learning process.

In the classroom our faculty uses digital media to intensify students’ basic skills. Using video and audio technology brings class material to life in a way that stimulates students’ minds and facilitates learning. By incorporating pictures, sound, and animation, multimedia significantly improves students’ ability to recall elementary facts, as well as improve their understanding of intricate and complex systems. In general, gaining technological proficiency helps students learn more effectively and efficiently.
