OIT is the contact point for the University of Maryland’s membership in the EDUCAUSE Learning Initiative (ELI), which provides the university community, especially faculty, with resources to improve student learning through IT innovation. The available resources include videos that highlight innovative ideas and activities; case studies, white papers, and other reports that give information on learning trends and technology; and podcasts about learning and technology. You can access these resources by visiting www.educause.edu/ELI.

Ellen Yu Borkowski, OIT’s Director of Academic Support, talks about some of the benefits of the university’s ELI membership in a video on the ELI site. You can watch the video by visiting www.educause.edu/ELIResources and clicking on “What Members Say about ELI’s Focus on Learners and Learning.”
