CLT

Trinity’s Center for Learning and Technology (CLT) is located on the first floor of the library. I had never visited the CLT before today and obviously did not know anything about it. However I learned many interesting facts about the CLT from Robert Chapman’s lecture today. The CLT is the home of computers (mostly Macs and PCs), DVD and CD players, digital cameras, projectors, microphones, TVs, etc. All of which is made accessible to Trinity students. The CLT is divided into sections that specialize in areas such as audio/ video editing, podcasting, web and graphic design, media presentation, video conferencing, and many more. The CLT is also responsible for management of all classroom technology and campus cable TV. Now that I know more about this center, I am sure I will be able to use it in the future. It is a nice quiet place that provides all of the resources that I could possibly ever need in order to complete assignments for my Computer Skills class. Right now I am creating a report for my archaeology class. Our teacher informed us of CLT so that we could rent a digital camera if we did not personally own one in order to take pictures of our archaeological sites. In the future, I can rent other equipment that I may need in order to complete assignments for any of my other classes. I can also go to CLT for any of my production needs, such as duplicating DVDs, often free of charge. CLT is also beginning to record lectures from certain classes. This will allow me to watch a lecture of a class that I might miss due to sports or illness. At CLT I can also record personal presentations such as an audition for graduate school.
