CENTER FOR TEACHING ARTS AND TECHNOLOGY (CTAT) The Center for Teaching Arts and Technology, a Tennessee Center of Emphasis for higher education, was created to assist faculty members in the use of educational and instructional technologies to enhance teaching and learning in the classrooms.

CTAT staff members provide educational technology support for these courses by managing the equipment in the classrooms and IDEA rooms, the Distance Learning tapes, WebCT, and the Audiovisual Collection, as well as the Roane State Website. Instructional support is also provided to the faculty in the form of both formal and informal training sessions. In addition to the support provided in the classrooms, CTAT also has a FAST (Faculty and Student Technology) lab that has state of the art equipment available for the creation of classroom materials. The ACDC (Academic Curriculum Development Center) is another resource available to faculty that can be utilized for small group sessions. Both of these rooms are located on the second floor of the Library on the Roane County campus. Center hours are: 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday.

LEARNING SUPPORT SERVICES Our Learning Centers provide free learning assistance to students, faculty, staff and to community members in the service area. There are Learning Centers on the Roane County Campus (second floor of the Library), the Cumberland County Campus (Rm. 152), and the Oak Ridge Campus (in the Library). Visit our web site at www.roane state.edu/learningcenter. Tutoring in Math, Science and Other Disciplines—The Learning Centers provide tutoring in a variety of disciplines. Students can check the schedule for available tutors that is published on Campus Pipeline, distributed around the campuses, and posted outside the Learning Centers. The software that accompanies the college’s math courses is loaded on Learning Center computers and is available to students. Writing Help—Each center offers the following help to students: Writing consultations are available by appointment for one-to-one interaction with individual writers. The writing consultants (usually the director or a student writing tutor) do not edit or proofread writing assignments. When working with students, they focus on rhetorical and logical principles. Students are introduced to models of excellence in writing and challenged to think clearly and critically. We look for patterns of error and stress solid organization. To make an appointment, students may come by the centers or call 822-4677 in Roane County, 481-2026 in Oak Ridge, or 456-9880 in Cumberland County.
