Zoran Piljevic, the Director of Information Instructional Technology Services since 2008, reflects on the role of IITS at UTSC. He touches upon his involvement in the physical expansion of the campus and the widespread integration of technology into UTSC’s classrooms. Additionally, he comments on the early integration of television into the campus and speculates on its lack of success being connected to the ways in which this teaching model, and online learning, are limited in regards to the interaction between students and instructors. Zoran also touches upon the tensions that exist between UTSC and UTSG from an IT perspective, with the central IT serving the divisions in St. George while UTSC and UTM exist on the periphery as a campus and a division.
