Narrative
In January of 2016 the department of Teaching and Learning will launch a new Instructional Technology graduate program.  The field of instructional technology demands graduates with strong skills with several software programs that are standards in the industry.  These cost of purchasing can be extremely costly and a one-time 30 day free trial is not enough to teach the skills our graduates need to succeed in the workplace.   Camtasia is a leading eLearning and video production application that is used by instructional designers and technologists in the field.  We currently teach the software to our students but are doing so on a 30 day free trial basis. We have successfully tested Camtasia on the virtual server. We would like to give our students access to it on the FAU virtual apps server. We would also like to install two copies on the instructor’s hard drives for teaching purposes.
