Presentation Topic and Synopsis
 
 
Dr. Martin Crossland

  Creative Use of Technology
The creative use of technology often requires the creative use of small budgets. Dr. Marty Crossland shares with us the collection of technologies and methods he has developed to work in order to leverage the relatively low-cost technologies now available to all faculty and students at OSU, and to most other educators elsewhere. Dr. Crossland says, "Often the innovation is in the collection and integration of the various components, rather than in utilization of any one or only a few of the available solutions."
