TOURS of the LTC are designed to ensure that all students are familiar with the location and services of the LTC. They normally last about 15 minutes. Alternatively, you may request that an LTC staff member visit your classroom for a 10-15 minute presentation.

ORIENTATIONS are designed to help students use the LTC and supplemental software programs effectively. The orientation sessions are conducted by trained LTC staff. Early orientation helps students make the best use of LTC resources. A lab orientation session is required before classes can be scheduled for in-lab practice sessions. Orientations are 45-60 minute sessions. No in-lab practice visits may be scheduled until an orientation has been completed.

IN-LAB PRACTICE SESSIONS may be scheduled after an orientation session has been completed. In-lab practice sessions are designed to encourage fluency through practice and facilitate the identification and correction of error patterns. The instructor directs activities during these sessions; LTC staff facilitate session set-up and troubleshoot software usage problems. In-lab practice visits may be scheduled for one hour every other week, as space is available.

TO REQUEST A VISIT, use the online visit request form below. You will receive an email confirmation. You may also call, email or stop by the LTC (Room SF-1200).

REMINDER:

• Instructors MUST accompany and remain with the class.
• Visits must be scheduled in advance, so we can provide adequate staff and ensure lab access for individual students.
• To ensure the best use of class visit time, please bring a copy of your class roster on the first visit. When your class visits, LTC staff will sign-in your students so the entire visit can be devoted to practice.
• Please notify us, in advance, if you need to cancel; this will allow us to honor other requests.
• Please be on time for visits. The one hour time limit will be strictly observed to ensure that individual lab users are served. Classes arriving more than fifteen minutes after the scheduled start time may be asked to reschedule.
• New full-time and part-time faculty members are encouraged to consult LTC staff to review lab resources
