SECTION 3: INSTITUCIONAL POLICIES

3.11 Educational Technology

At USP, students and faculty use technology to facilitate authentic learning in every phase of our teaching and learning process.

Learning in a rapidly changing landscape requires high levels of information fluency, media literacy and technology integration.

For this reason, we believe:

  • Appropriate technology use is an essential component of optimal learning environments.
  • Technology creates new teaching and learning opportunities and contributes to an environment in which teaching and learning is learner-centered, collaborative, and engaging.
  • Technology provides the means for equitable learning opportunities.
    technology allows teachers to meet the diverse learning needs of students by adapting to individual goals and learning styles.


USP strongly promotes ethical values among its students. All students, faculty and staff must abide by the USP Information and Communication Technology Policy.
