::grin:: Aw, you know how to make a girl smile. :)
I was training some students on how to support our classroom technology today, and I reassured them that our in-room systems are very easy to use. "We designed them so that faculty could use them," I said. They laughed, but then I elaborated that faculty already have more-than-full-time jobs teaching, so it would be unfair to expect them to spend even more time learning about technology. That's our job. That's why we work to make technology easy to use, and to make the system for getting what they need as transparent and flawless as possible.
