Ongoing Implementation Tips
Adopting technology on campus is only the beginning. The easier it is for colleges and universities to manage their inventory in the long term, the less work and cost they’ll take on after the initial investment. With 33% of educators refraining from teaching with technology because they find it unreliable, user-centered software such as Logitech Sync can help ensure no device is left behind. Sync allows IT staff to remotely adjust settings on linked video conferencing devices, troubleshoot, and push firmware updates, keeping every professor’s remote learning setup healthy, secure, and up to date. It also provides usage data, so IT can make deployment decisions based on how faculty and students engage with solutions. Impactful tech not only works well but continues working by automating maintenance and diagnostics.
Finally, higher ed IT and technology leaders should look for tools shaped with extensive feedback from the people using them to teach or learn. That way, instructors won’t have to wrangle an advanced system, and students will get the learning experience they expect. At Logitech, we build education solutions by gathering feedback from end-users in the beginning, middle, and end of the design process, to ensure the final product effortlessly enables high-quality teaching and learning.
Learning is transforming, but colleges and universities should feel optimistic about the change. Good solutions have the power to boost impact at the student, faculty, and institutional level. With advanced yet easy-to-use technologies putting new learning modalities at the center of how we learn, more students and more institutions will have the chance to thrive in the digital future.
