New Instructional Technology Staff Start New Semester

If you’re seeing some new faces in DoIT, chances are they work in instructional technology. In March, DoIT announced Sherri Braxton-Lieber as our new Director of Instructional Technology. In July, she announced two new specialists, Holly Bielak and Mariann Hawken. They joined Tom Penniston, who worked with us part-time last year, and is now working full-time as a specialist, too. Finally, we have recently added Brad Boyle to support the International Media Center (IMC) and Scantron test scoring.

While everyone is well-versed in Blackboard, there’s a nice mix of expertise across all of the instructional technologies DoIT supports, including clickers, hybrid/blended course redesign, learning analytics and screencasting. Also, you’ll likely notice more workshops and brown bags as the new team is even holding a special drawing for people who frequent DoIT events. From scheduled workshops to individual or small group consults, if you’d like to learn more, please contact Sherri Braxton-Lieber at 410.455.2121 or sblieber@umbc.edu.
