ASSETT Welcomes Student Employees

Five student employees have joined the ASSETT team for the fall 2019 semester.

Undergraduates Lucas Gama, Clara Geoghegan, and Zhouming Sun join veteran Alex Palo as our Student Technology Consultants. STCs partner with faculty, graduate instructors, and teaching assistants from the College of Arts & Sciences to improve the undergraduate student experience. Under the supervision of Ph.D. candidate Sam Kindick, our Lead STC, and Student Services Portfolio Manager Jacie Moriyama, they provide recommendations and training to help faculty members use instructional technology that reflects their teaching preferences, supports their students' learning styles, and works effectively within their specific course structures.

Sara Myers is our new Teaching, Learning, and Technology Initiatives Graduate Assistant. She succeeds Blair Young, who has been hired as the Innovation Catalyst for the ASSETT Innovation Incubator. Sara assists Faculty Services Portfolio Manager Amanda McAndrew in supporting and enhancing our faculty learning communities, campus partnerships, and technology initiatives such as a Domain of One’s Own (DoOO) pilot, Collective to Advance Multimodal Participatory Publishing (CAMPP), Open Educational Resources (OER), and open educational practices.

Educational Data Analyst Michael Schneider began working with ASSETT this past summer. He designs and conducts applied research to support teaching and learning with technology on campus and reports to Shane Schwikert, Data Analytics and Applied Learning Sciences Manager.
