New Book Display: Creating a Tech Infused Practice

Have you seen this banner outside the UBC Education Library branch?  It’s showing just 6 of the exciting new UBC Education Library titles to help you create a “Tech-Infused Practice.”  On the main floor of the branch, just behind the Service Desk, you will see two display shelves.   On the left shelf are Professional books such as the ones below, and on the right shelf are Children’s books with the theme of Technology.

Stop by and see what’s new in Technology Enhanced Learning!
