Rationale*
In terms of technology, currently the Lab has one laptop for tutors to input necessary data for the
Learning Connection.
We need more laptops for students to research presentation topics, draft outlines, and create visual
aids.
Our Comm Lab also lacks up-to-date presentation aides for students to rehearse. In the future, we
need a set-up as close to a SMART classroom as possible; projector, screen, computer with internet
access and Power Point, DVD player, CD player, and document camera.
We also need video-taping equipment to record student speeches. This is an essential rehearsal tool
and can be a requirement for some classes. This requires a video camera with good microphone and
tripod. Currently this is part of the plan for Building 100, but it is still in planning stages. In these plans,
there will also be computer stations. We require the following programs: Word, Power Point, and a
Dictionary with auditory pronunciation and headphones.
