Academic Technology Strategy and Innovation
Academic Technology Services investigates, develops and implements key plans and processes that align our work with the University's Strategic Plan.
Always researching, we are not just interested in, "What's Next?" but what makes sense in a higher education landscape and what will be valuable to students and instructors on our campus. Our goals are to find solutions that are accessible, equitable, and scalable.
We develop strategic plans that not only align with the priorities of the institution, but steers the course toward the ATS mission and vision for the future.
Some of the key strategic priorities accomplished by ATS include:
- Guiding colleges toward a campus-wide increase in online and hybrid course conversions
- Building an express computer lab in the new Student Success Center
- Constructing next-generation classrooms
- Developing tools within our learning management system to improve data analysis of student learning outcomes
- Producing personnel development plans for leadership, staff, student assistant and internships
Academic Technology Services offers a variety of assessment tools and services to support faculty in the classroom. Many tools are available to faculty on a complimentary basis from CSULB's Software Depot.
Faculty are encouraged to consult with ATS staff for assistance with the design, implementation, or management of assessment projects related to the following projects:
- Qualtrics Survey Development
- Respondus Exam and Quiz Developer
- Statistical Analysis
- Student Perceptions of Teaching (SPOT)
