Virginia Tech's Advanced Communication and Information Technology Center: A 21st Century Space

Presenter(s): Philip A. Esocoff, Esocoff & Associates Architects; Tom Head and Z. Scott Hurst, Virginia Tech
Convener: Sandy Boyle, University of Washington, Tacoma


This presentation describes the design, development, and initial startup of the Advanced Communication and Information Technology Center at Virginia Tech. The facility is a visible symbol of the university's commitment to its instructional mission and provides the space for the high-technology tools to accomplish that mission. The center provides a common facility for experimentation in a rapidly emerging teaching and learning environment designed to prepare students for the 21st century.
This knowledge resource from SCUP is a concurrent session presented at the Society's thirty-sixth annual, international conference and Expo, SCUP–36, in Boston, MA (USA), in July of 2001.

Audiocassettes of this and other SCUP–36 sessions are available for purchase here.

Due to our concern for the privacy of members of the face-to-face audiences at SCUP-36, our digital archives of SCUP-36 presentations end at the beginning of the question and answer portion of each session. Whenever we can, we not only provide streaming audio but the slide show or visual presentation used by the presenters, as well.
