From the way classes are taught to how college officials respond in times of emergency, technology is changing local colleges. The uses are as diverse as technology itself and as mixed as the academic disciplines it serves. Students and private-sector technicians will use a massive clean room planned for SUNYIT as part of a partnership with the Albany College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering. At Utica College, a simulated stock trading floor helps students learn about the world of investing. And at Mohawk Valley Community College, professors are using more videos and other web-based learning tools, and even piping in guest lecturers from other countries.
