"I think the ET Partners program is a fantastic idea," shares Andy
Jones, lecturer in the English Department and coordinator for the Computer-Aided
Instruction program. "The program should raise technical literacy
expectations for faculty and students alike, especially when they see our
faculty using new tools to communicate and collaborate on academic and
pedagogical projects…. I'm sure that many faculty members on campus are
already wondering how soon they can be assigned a student ET partner.”
