Laptops

All incoming freshmen for the 2020-2021 academic year are required to bring laptops to campus. Please view the College Laptop Requirement and the new hardware recommendations for all majors.

iPads

The college encourages and incorporates the use of student and faculty iPads in teaching and learning throughout the curricula. Academic Technology supports Endicott faculty and students across disciplines in this initiative. You can email ipad@endicott.edu for help or call the iPad Support line at ext. 2997.

Canvas and YuJa

Canvas is the Learning Management System (LMS) and YuJa is our cloud based media storage and distribution server, allowing faculty to embed videos, distribute podcasts and other media files to their students in an efficient and secure manner. These online tools allow faculty, students and staff to collaborate and communicate in a variety of ways for courses and other approved campus departments and groups. Documents and files of just about any type, can be posted to Canvas by faculty. Additionally, online forums where faculty, staff and students can post topics and responses for discussion can take place 24/7. Chat rooms, web conferencing, online quizzes, tests and other coursework and assignments, as well as announcements and online grading are also part of the Canvas LMS.

XR Lab 

XR, meaning "extended reality" is a term that encompasses virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR) and mixed reality (MR). Endicott is a pioneer in using these cutting edge technologies to enhance learning and teaching by immersing the user into these "alternative realities" that can either mix the real world with 3D objects and imagery or completely immerse the user in a virtual world. The XR Lab itself (located in LSB403) contains multiple systems that can be used by students and professors to enhance their understanding of the subject including, architectural design, biology, anatomy, nursing, and engineering. The Lab houses numerous VR/AR systems, including the Oculus Rift, Oculus Quest, Oculus Go, Microsoft Hololens, HTC Vive and Magic Leap and can be booked by appointment. These systems can also be brought to other campus locations by request.

Workshops and Training

Academic Technology workshops for faculty, students and staff are offered throughout the academic year on a variety of learning technologies, including classroom and digital media technologies, Canvas, YuJa, iPads/ mobile devices and web conferencing/virtual classroom technology. Schedules are posted each semester.
