Current Practices
What types of technologies do you currently use in your developmental writing classrooms?
What is your reasons for using these technologies?
How effective are they?

Why use technology? Real world applications Value for teaching writing Low Threshold Applications (LTAs)
A Low Threshold Application (LTA) is a teaching/learning application of information technology that is reliable, accessible, easy to learn, non-intimidating and (incrementally) inexpensive.
![Page 6: Teaching Developmental Writing Seminar Vii. Technology: Etymology: Greek technologia systematic treatment of an art, from technē art, skill + -o- + -logia](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062308/56649e025503460f94aec224/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Low Threshold Applications Each LTA should have immediate, observable,
positive consequences, and may also contribute to cumulative changes in teaching and/or learning practice (e.g., helping improve faculty-student contact).
"... the potential user (teacher or learner) perceives an LTA as NOT challenging, not intimidating, not requiring a lot of additional work or new thinking.
LTAs… are also 'low-threshold' in the sense of having low INCREMENTAL costs for purchase, training, support, and maintenance." - Steve Gilbert, President, TLT Group, in AAHESGIT-96
