- This is the first portion of a two-part series on Teaching and Learning with Technology's Technology Learning Assistant program. Technology Learning Assistants (TLAs) are students who help Penn State faculty members at University Park use technology in their classes. TLAs spend a semester or more in one-on-one consultations (5 to 10 meetings) to answer technology questions and help faculty learn the skills necessary to use ANGEL, create Web pages, develop PowerPoint slides, develop a grade book, and learn other technology skills. Today, we look at the program through the eyes of one of the TLAs, Gavin Grisamore. Next Tuesday, Dec. 1, for part 2 we talk to one of Gavin's faculty "students," Diane Ebken, instructor in the School of Nursing.
