Conclusions

A lot of current technology use on campus, especially of D2L and Google Apps

The largest reason people do not use a particular technology (next to not applicable) is lack of training not access to software/hardware

Time is the biggest barrier to using technology in teaching in a variety of ways

Where do we go from here?
