The AT&T Center for Learning and Technology...
It still completely astonishes me when I look around and see how technically advanced Trinity University is. Sure, it is a university and should be able to offer it's students the best technology for their own personal educational advancements, but it has turly gone beyond that expectation. On the first floor of the Elizabeth Coate's Library, the AT&T Center for Learning and Technology can be found. It is a center with truly remarkable resources for the student's disposal. There are several work stations that vary in programs and equipment. There included the Innovation Studio, the Video Conference Center, Studios@CLT, Media Presentation Lab, and my personal favorite, the Digital Audio Lab. It is the one with which I worked with the most because it was completely entertaining to me. One could do so many things in the area since it is equipped numerous computers, a synthesizer, digital audio importing and editing hardware, access to a number of audio sources providing both digital and analog import capability, and sound editing software. I am a music fanatic, so seeing all of the recording devices was truly exciting, not to mention that it is also extrememly beneficial to Power-Point Presentations and other projects that you may encounter during your time in college. This station could be incorporated into my CS1300 class by adding special audio effects to one of my presentations or assignments in class. It is really only up to your imagination! The technology is there, we just have to take advantage of it and make the most of it.
