Information technology is an integral part of every aspect of Landmark College's education program. It affects everything — from the network tools that allows faculty, staff, and students to stay in touch with each other, to the regular use of specific technology applications in the teaching-learning process. Landmark College may be unique in the depth to which we seek to integrate information technology directly into our curriculum.
Our commitment to this integration starts with the recognition that facility with information technology is a vital competency for academic study, professional careers, and lifelong learning. However, we go further, recognizing that for individuals with learning disabilities and AD/HD, tools and learning strategies that incorporate technology may be absolutely vital in helping students to realize their potential.
The starting point for Landmark College's commitment to integrating technology is in our general education goals and learning outcomes that define specific objectives for student learning. These goals and outcomes are assigned to individual required courses, in order to assure that all students will learn, practice, and succeed in mastering them. In addition, the curriculum and the advising system are designed in a way that is intended to help students learn about the ways in which technology may benefit their own particular learning profile. Supplemental opportunities for exploring specific applications and uses of technology are available through our National Institute's Assistive Technology web pages, the Technology on Campus IT staff and the Library.
