What You're Doing, Where We're Going
This senior design project was created by a team of mechanical engineering students, Josel De la Cruz, Ronald Valenzuela, Jeffrey Lim, and Raymond Persaud. We didn’t know anything about router tables before looking through this project, but we thought it was a great example of how the OpenLab can be used to organize and showcase group projects. It turns out we learned something new, too!
#TheGuide project, organized by Professor Karen Goodlad in the Hospitality Management department and Professor Laura Westengard in the English department, and created by their students, offers the OpenLab community a friendly neighborhood guide to local resources ranging from information about college skills, to tours of Brooklyn Bridge Park, to where to find the best local grub! This site is very well-organized and makes good use of widgets in the right-hand sidebar. Just check out all of those great categories! This site is a great example of how collaborative work done on the OpenLab can benefit the entire City Tech community.
The Writing Across the Curriculum program has developed an excellent site on the OpenLab, full of helpful resources and great information about writing pedagogy. The site is well-structured to make information easy to find, and they’ve made great use of their right-hand sidebar. You can find advice from writing fellows, resources for faculty, information about workshops, and even materials from past workshops in case you’ve missed one.
Read through the Fellows Corner and WAC in Practice sections for discussions about pedagogy and examples of writing intensive courses and assignments on the OpenLab.
The OpenLab is an open-source, digital platform designed to support teaching and learning at City Tech (New York City College of Technology), and to promote student and faculty engagement in the intellectual and social life of the college community.
