What is educational technology?
The library has a collection of technology devices that can be used for educational purposes. Tutors, teachers and other educators may use the devices in the library with the assistance of one of our librarians. You may use these devices with your students to learn or try out a new technology to see if you want to use it in your own classroom.
The list of available educational technology is below.
Some of these devices may require an iPad or laptop. You may use one from the library or bring your own from home.
