Overview
Ready to boost your students' digital skills and bring your assignments to life? Located right in Grasselli Library (CDM Lab B-102), the JCU / ITS Center for Digital Media offers energetic, customized support designed to reduce technology anxiety and set your students up for success.
It doesn’t matter if you are teaching Business, Marketing, English, Health Science, or Biology—the area of study doesn't matter! The digital literacy and production tools students learn during a Tech Field Trip build powerful, transferable skills that are essential in every single field today.
We invite you to schedule a hands-on session in our lab, or we can bring a technical specialist directly to your classroom (depending on class size). Simply provide us with your course name, date/time, a quick overview of your assignment, and the apps you want us to cover—we’ll handle the rest to create an engaging, high-impact experience for your class!
