Did you know that we have over 70,000 books and magazines, thousands of DVDs, and two floors of computers and tech? We even have dozens of databases full of information that you can't get through Google. If we don't have it, we can probably get it for you from another source through our interlibrary loan program. Our friendly faculty and staff are ready and waiting to answer your questions and provide the materials you need to make a difference for your students. Visit our website to learn more.

Educational technology, often referred to as "EdTech," is the study and practice of using technology, media, and learning theory to enhance instruction. But many EdTech programs can also be used outside of the classroom to improve workflows, and just make daily life more pleasant.
In each issue of Check It Out we will share one new EdTech Tip that you may find useful for yourself or your students. Recommendations will always be FREE and help
integrating these technologies into your classrooms will be available upon request.
