The EIU Center for Academic Technology Support (CATS) is seeking your input. Do you experience problems with classroom Wi-Fi connectivity, want more online course offerings, or better access to campus services or learning material through your cell phone? Let us know! We are asking the EIU student body to tell us about their experiences with the best and worst technologies on campus and which technologies are utilized to meet your course & learning objectives.
This effort is a collaborative project among, CATS the EDUCAUSE Center for Applied Research (ECAR), and 225 other colleges and universities across the nation. This is your chance to influence which technologies are available across the EIU campus. All EIU undergraduate students are invited to participate in this campus-wide technology survey. The survey is now open and by participating, you are eligible to win either a $50 or $100 gift card to Amazon.com.
EIU is interested in improving students’ experiences with information technology in higher education. The results of this study are very important to us. Your participation is voluntary, and your responses will be completely confidential. We encourage you to participate, and the web-based survey will only take about 10 minutes to complete.
