Bio
Patrick Barlow
Chad is a supportive colleague and also a forward thinking individual who looks out for both coworkers and the organization. He relates well with those he works with and first strives to understand their needs before moving to discuss instructional technologies. He holds high standards and will never advocate for an inferior technology. Chad is the person I go to when I need to think through issues that call for organizational change or implementation of a new strategy as his skill set includes academic and practical experience with those issues.

These outcomes were achieved because the Director provides face-to-face training, online resources, as well as advanced summer faculty development programming to the faculty.

The Director of Instructional Technology reports to the Vice President for Academic Affairs - The College.Additional Teaching and Advising Responsibilities: Teach one course at the undergraduate level (i.e. Oral Communication), guest lecturer in several undergraduate and graduate courses, advise students in our Masters of Human Development program, supervise student internships, and supervise student workers.
