The center is also highly dependent on people in the Southern Miss community who are willing to share their expertise, experience, and enthusiasm for incorporating technology into higher education. A collaborative effort among diverse units, departments, colleges, and organizations is required to be effective in integrating instruction with appropriate technology.
