The goal is to offer a scalable and sustainable package of services that can address a patron’s specific needs. Chromebooks will be checked out with or without a wifi hotspot with unlimited data. Existing technology instruction and support services will be improved by adding integrated video chat, remote support, and phone options. The reach of these services will be extended through a website with technology tutorials and the creation of custom content to address local needs. A new hybrid model of technology instruction using a flipped classroom pedagogical approach will be developed using the strengths of face-to-face and online learning.
