Angel Learning
Management System

After a year-long evaluation and review, COTC has decided to go with Angel Learning as its new learning management system (LMS) for online courses. The LMS will also serve as an online tool for face-to-face classes. Planning is taking place during Summer Quarter with a small pilot group during Fall Quarter and then it will roll-out campus-wide Winter Quarter 2009. Stay tuned for details this summer including information about training.

New Faces

The telCenter has hired two new student workers for summer.

Aimee Phillips is a COTC student in the Digital Media Design program and comes with impressive web design and multimedia skills. If you are looking for ways to spruce up your website or want some design ideas, please visit Aimee in the telCenter.

Jonathan Holmes is an OSU student in the English Department. He enjoys writing and comes to us with impressive customer service skills and is always eager to help. If you don’t see him in the telCenter, it’s likely he can be found in the OSU Writing Lab!

Welcome to both students!

Initiatives

Summer 2008 Initiatives

Some people say that summer quarter is a good time to relax and catch up. The telCenter agrees, but also feels compelled to use it as a time to test and explore new trends in educational technology.

Following is a taste of what we will be exploring this summer in preparation for fall pilots.

Lori Rice wears many hats. She is an OSU Computer Instructor, Programmer, Mom, and to the telCenter and many, many Newark Campus faculty and staff, she is one heck of a MS Office 2007 trainer!

We met Lori just as we were getting ready to roll-out MS Office 2007 campus-wide in Fall 2007.
