#LSSlife Labbie Q&A Part 2!

It's #techtuesday, and here at LSS we love finding new ways to integrate technology into the classroom. So we asked our labbies,

what is one piece of technology you can't live without?

Here's what they said:

-”Cell phone because it is a way that I can keep in touch with my family and friends (especially the ones that don’t go to Madison)” -Alison

  -”Macbook Power Adapter because otherwise the computer would die :)” -Karl

  -”Phone, it has everything” -Christoph

  -”None! Although I work with technology every day, I would love to go back to a time where it did not exist. #snailmail” -Molly

  -”Cell phones, I really like to communicate with people.” -Jessica

  -”My laptop because school would be so much harder without it” -Justin

  -”My phone, gotta stay connected” -Jane

  -”My computer- it’s got a lifetimes worth of knowledge and I also stay connected with others through social media and iMessage” -Shannon

  -”My phone, since I’d be lost without the Google Maps app.” -Simone

  -”Computer - they have so many awesome capabilities” -Caitlin

  -”GPS on iPhone, bad sense of direction” -Kate

  -”My phone. I love having portable access to the Internet” -Nick

If you were a piece of AV Pool Equipment, which would you be and why?

As part of #LSSLife week, we went around and ask our labbies and staff some fun questions. Here are there answers to what equipment they would be that can be checked out from our AV Pool in Van Hise.

Lisa Jansen: "A region-free DVD player, because our instructors teach with materials from outside region 1 (US)."

Katie Wargin: "an adapter --everyone wants them!"

Heba Elorbany: "Probably one of those CD/cassette players, because I'm a 90's kid."

Lane Sunwall: "A Mac, so I could teach other Macs how to be more like PCs."

Emily Schneider: "I'd be a dougle (adapter cord thing) because it has a funny name, but is a vital piece."

Cody Wollenziehn: "A surge protector. I would silently be protecting everyone."

Nicole Pinelli: "MacBook, they do it all!" (Uh oh! No one tell Lane!)

Theresa Pesavento: "The Q3: it's a bit unusual, has funny speakers, but works like a charm! :)"

Billy Noseworthy: "I would be the Pico projector. I think this explains itself." 

Molly Schommer: "A boombox, so I could sing and dance whenever I wanted too."

Haley Mesick: "A cart--I like to move around and explore."

Anne Redmond: "An adapter--I'm very adaptable."

#LSSLife week!

As a labbie and social media intern at Learning Support Services, I have found that it is sometimes difficult for those outside of our department to understand what it is that we do, or how special our LSS community and the experience as a member of LSS really are. 

This week, LSS labbies and staff will be sharing their experiences and love for LSS through social media, through #LSSLife.

My #LSSLife

Thursday was the only day I didn't work this week, however I still found myself lurking around the 2nd floor of Van Hise.

I've been working on a new Lens on the Collection board which features a grouping of movies and hangs outside of the Van Hise Learning Lab. Lane Sunwall had compiled a list of movies we have here in the Learning Lab and asked me to design a poster for "Religion in Film." It's pretty awesome, if I do say so myself.

After about a billion rounds of changes and tweaks, it's just about perfect.  We're sure that you'll enjoy it, so keep your eyes peeled for the new board next week!

Stay Happy,

Emily Schneider
