Dartmouth College. Office of Instructional Services

 

Biography

The Office of Instructional Services and Computing Services merged July 1994 to streamline planning for the next generation of classrooms and teaching. What the merger did was to unite two organizations that were increasingly drawn together by the evolution of computing and information technology. The decision to merge the two offices was made by the Provost's Council, a group of senior-level administrators chaired by the Provost.

As part of the Office of the Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, OISER primarily is a support service for undergraduate and graduate instruction in Arts and Sciences, although it does serve other parts of the College and some community groups as well.

The services, facilities, and resources provided by OISER are numerous and varied; film, television, slide programs, computer-media applications, instructional development and educational research, special instructional projects, graphic and photography, and viewing facilities.

OISER's primary function is to provide services and resources without charge to the members of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, Thayer School, and Tuck School in direct support of course instruction in academic departments and programs. Services are also provided to offices of the College and other users.
