AGNR Academic Programs is looking to place an undergraduate technology (UTAP) student with an AGNR faculty member for the spring 2017 semester to assist with educational technology projects in the classroom.
UTAP Students receive the following training:
• Faculty support and an overview of pedagogical issues
• Designing and constructing a website using HTML and dreamweaver
• Incorporating and manipulating digital audio, video, and images
• Presentation design in Microsoft PowerPoint, Camtasia, and Prezi
• Designing and maintaining ELMS course spaces
• Common instructional technologies such as wikis, blogs, RSS feeds, podcasts, etc.
In addition to in-class workshops, students complete project assignments such as creating presentations, designing course websites, and building ELMS course spaces. Our UTAP students were extremely successful in their fall course and are very excited to work with a faculty member in the spring semester.
UTAP students work up to 10 hours/week, are guaranteed $8.00/hour and,
as an incentive, AGNR Academic Programs pays 50% of their salary.
Please let me know if you are interested for the spring semester or have any questions about the program. Contact Hollin Roberts (hrobert1@umd.edu) if you are interested for Spring 2017.
