Technology Assistant
-
May 2016 - May 2017
I assist professors with help concerning issues with Moodle (an eLearning platform). I often must think on my feet to quickly resolve a problem. If the issue turns out to be something more complicated, I must work to resolve the issue until I can find a solution. I also update the organization website concerning Moodle and continue finding and creating resources that will better help professors and students with Moodle at Louisiana Tech University.

While most issues are solved by phone, I also assist faculty and students through email and in person. In addition, I assist professors with Compressed Video classes (Distance Learning), Smart Classrooms, and advanced Moodle training.
