I’m pleased to announce that I will be sitting down with Stephanie Cheney (@SCheney), Director of Training and Development within the Division of Technology Services at Wentworth Institute of Technology in Boston, MA. The Training & Development team works with faculty to help them effectively integrate technology into curriculum to meet course goals. The unique 1-1 laptop initiative at Wentworth provides students and faculty with powerful tools to transform the educational experience.
During the interview, we talk about the relationship between Higher Education Information Technology (IT) and Student Affairs departments and how they can better work together to see their collective visions become reality. We will also talk about her role at Wentworth and how she works with Student Affairs departments! I’m excited to talk with Stephanie about this unique perspective!
I hope you can join us for our conversation!
