Learning Technology
Using the technology without it using us.
OER you ready for this?
Through the wonders of technology, digital things like e-books, learning modules, videos, podcasts and more can be copied for virtually zero cost. Because of that, sometimes people are in the position to release some of these things as Open Educational Resources. Please view this video to see how these resources become free. Just kidding. But here is a HUGE collection of OER right here.

D2L Tricks & Treats
Speaking of those lovely people doing peer mentorship that we mentioned above, they’ve joined forces with the also lovely people at the Library to offer a student focused D2L workshop. Some students may not think it is such a treat to navigate their D2L course pages so this may be a great opportunity for them to gain some tricks. It’s Oct 2 and 4 in the Sutherland Library room C1220.6 from 12-1.
