PEC is the training center for the full time force of the Army National Guard. We basically train the job functions of the full time Guard staff that are not trained by the Army. ======

Since I teach at a facility for adults, our strategy for integrating computers into the classroom are a little different. We still incorporate computer use into many of our courses. In all of our training centers, we have mostly "wired" classrooms. All of student workstations have their own computer and the instructor has a computer that is wired to the projector/smartboard. Instructors use these to present slides and diagrams. These are also used in some classrooms to project images for demonstrations when teaching software applications. I actually teach the staff and faculty courses here at PEC, so we use less technology resources than the other training centers, but that is also changing. With the integration of Guard University, a blackboard site set to launch in a few months, one of our tasks is to train the staff on how to integrate this tool into their courses.
