====== Information & Learning Technologies ======

The Information & Learning Technologies (ILT) team has two service areas and teams: the **Tech Team** and the **Digital Learning Team**.

The **Tech Team** focuses primarily on Information Technology (IT) infrastructure, facilities, services, and support. The Tech Team consults and assists with the acquisition, installation, or repair of ANY/ALL technology and equipment housed within the SEHD. The team is a liaison with the University Office of Information Technology (OIT), CU facilities, and respective vendors/partners needing to integrate with SEHD systems. We consult and assist with web development, automation/workflow, facility design/maintenance, employee computing/printing, student computing/printing and related support services.

The **Digital Learning Team** focuses primarily on digital teaching and learning; platforms, pedagogies, designs, and projects. The Digital Learning Team consults and assists with the development of digital courses, programs, and faculty; incorporating technology training, support, and development of digitally enhanced teaching. This team is a liason with the CU Office of Digital Education (ODE), the Center for Excellence in Teaching & Learning (CETL), ThinqStudio, and the Learning, Educational Technology, Teaching, and Scholarship Committee (LETTS). This team also works closely with the SEHD's Learning Design & Technology (LDT) program, and provides leadership and guidance for the **LDT Student Agency**.

The **LDT Student Agency** is a creative and technical student-team operating as an extension of the SEHD's Learning Design & Technology MA program. LDT students are invited to work in the agency as ad-hoc learning designers, educational technologists, and consultants. Students are for-hire inside and outside of the university as a student practicum.
