While not tied to a specific tool, many College of IST courses use labs to help students practice real world scenarios. Many times, these labs are virtual, where students are given access to technical resources and then are asked to either build or break something as part of their course work.
Go to the College of IST Helpdesk website to find more information about Labs at https://www.up.ist.psu.edu/
Technical Support
Lab work is specific to the College of IST and thus not supported university-wide. If your course has a lab and you experience a technical problem, please contact the College of IST’s Office of Information Technology.
They can be reached by contacting helpdesk@ist.psu.edu or by calling (814) 863-8803.
Standard hours of operation for IST’s Helpdesk are Monday – Friday 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. EST, but check https://www.up.ist.psu.edu/ for the latest information.
If your course uses labs, work with your Instructional Designer to learn more.
