Are all the New Media Centers campus-wide facilities?
About 80% of New Media Centers serve the entire campus on which they’re located. These centers are usually part of their school’s academic computing office, library, or instructional technology department. They may have either a direct or an informal relationship with the campus department responsible for pedagogical improvement or teaching excellence. Most of these campus-wide centers support faculty and staff who are learning to use new media tools and techniques to enhance and extend traditional teaching methods. In addition, they often run new media labs for students, provide functionality in dormitories and other non-classroom areas, and support distance learning programs.
