The Multimodal Education Center (MEC) embraces the vision that Technology Empowers Learning. Our goal is to create opportunities for exploration of emerging technologies and digital media by providing training workshops, innovative learning spaces and updated technology.

The MEC does not loan out any equipment for long-term use. All loans are for 7 days only and must be returned to the Checkout area when due to be loaned out to other patrons.

Virtual Student Help Desk

Please join student staff virtually in Blackboard Ultra, Monday through Friday noon to 6 pm, for assistance on using the technologies supplied by Multimodal Learning, including Canvas, Panopto, Respondus, Blackboard Ultra and more. This is meant for students only (faculty please see Multimodal Learning's open lab schedule).
