How can ASCTech help you create instructional media?
The ASCTech Academic Technologies Studio (ATS) in 142 Hagerty Hall supports instructor-created media throughout the College of Arts and Sciences, from video and audio recording instructional events to converting media for academic uses to archiving media. We help faculty, staff, and grad students incorporate multimedia into elearning, research, publishing, and outreach. This also includes off-site production work for projects. If you would like a physical copy of your recording, you will need to bring your own storage media (flash drive, DVD-R, etc.).
The projects below highlight some of the work that the ASCTech ATS currently supports. These projects can guide your thinking about how the studio can help you incorporate multimedia into your teaching. Please contact us for a consultation about other ways that we may be able to assist you. Or visit us in 142 Hagerty Hall for discussion and a tour.
Hours: Monday-Friday, 8:15 AM- 5 PM
