University of the District of Columbia Technology Adaptation Data
Purpose
Following the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic and the announcement of stay-at-home orders, the University of the District of Columbia (UDC) shifted to a remote-learning and telework posture. In doing so, the University saw substantial increases in the number of its community members engaging with available technical solutions.
As faculty, staff, and students moved from in-person to virtual classrooms, labs, and meetings, they found new ways to connect and collaborate. As shown by the data below, they turned to the many cloud-centric applications that were already on hand and working within the UDC ecosystem. This new focus on virtualization and technology adoption truly empowered our community to minimize their physical distance while continuing to achieve the University’s mission.
This page highlights some of the applications that have experienced increased user engagement during this period.
