Designing Student Development Curriculum as Though Technology Matters


Paradoxically, the very technology that some view as a threat to human interaction in the student experience may, in fact, increase access and engagement with the campus community by offering asynchronous engagement alternatives. That paradox and our experience clearly demonstrate that, as faculty, we owe students aspiring to careers in student affairs (a) the skills to function effectively in that changing world, (b) the skills to constantly acquire and evaluate new knowledge in the face of fast paced change, and (c) knowledge and skills for leadership in assuring the centrality of student needs, in all their complexity, as technology impacts the structure and functioning of colleges and universities and with it, the student experience.
