LAITS Student Technology Assistants collaborate with the College of Liberal Arts faculty and administration by re-imagining their instructional and promotional projects with a creative use of video, audio, web and graphic design. STAs learn technical skills on the job with LAITS development studio staff. They build presentations, produce audio/visual works, scan text documents & perform image correction. STAs are instrumental in helping COLA faculty realize their vision for instructional technology projects used to enhance the teaching and learning experience.

Progress!!

A few of us have been assigned a scanning project for Dr. Edlund-Berry – the Morgantina Kyllingstad archive is extremely cool and delicate. So far, Bethany and I have been scanning the photo slides and are almost done with them. I’ve spent about 2.5hrs total scanning these and also color correcting the images for a much better version. Here are some of the examples:

I’ve also been given a lot of projects for PSY364 and TD301 and have been working with Patricia. One of them was to design a graphic for Let’s Jump Right In–unfortunately, the animation I’ve created needed a lot of adjustments, but thankfully Jac has been able to finish them while I was gone for the week.

I also was able to work on the Button Template training for Canvas; my buttons are on the left, and the original template is on the right:
