Today we made a visit to the Center for Learning and Technology (CLT), which is on the first floor of the library. I've heard about being able to check-out video cameras for projects and such, but I did not realize CLT was so much more than that. Robert Chapman introduced us to CLT and told us about the friendly staff who are always willing to help. There are a total of 26 computers, 14 are Macs and 12 are PCs. Certain computers have special programs related to Audio/Video Editing, Web & Graphic Design, and Podcasting & Internet. The Video Broadcasting Center is equipped with Polycam two-way video conference facilities which accomodates a growing mode of instant communication. The Digital Audio Lab is where students and faculty can record, manipulate, and incorporate audio materials into presentations. The tour was very helpful, especially since I will be using it for a Spanish project that involves filming and producing a 5-minute skit based on what we have learned. I am also excited to use CLT to convert movies to DVDs and to be able to scan photos and use Photoshop. I encourage you to check out CLT whenever you have time!
