CLT

Today I not only found out what the second and first floors of the library looked like, but also discovered the amazing equipment available to students through the Center for Learning and Technology. Before my visit I had no idea that the CLT existed, let alone all the technology that can be used within it. The one room that I found the most fascinating was the video studio theatre. The room looked like something you would find on set for a blockbuster movie; with all sorts of expensive looking cameras and even one of those microphones attached to an elongated pole so you can better hear the actors. If I were to ever use the resources in the CLT, it would most likely be from the studios. There are an abundance of computers available for use, along with laser printers and scanners, in case I ever needed to print out a high-quality report or send a copy of something. As for all the software on the computers and recording equipment in the various rooms, it all seems so overwhelming. I have never considered myself to be good with technology and I feel it would take awhile to learn how to use all the different resources. Being a business major, I probably will not spend too much time in the CLT unless I am required to make an advertisement for a marketing class or such. I will be curious to see if we use the CLT in the future for this class and if so which resources. It would be a shame for no one to use all the equipment that is available down there.
