There are some new faces around the ETS office! With the current summer term now in full swing, we have three new Co-op students who have joined our team.

Emily ­­Weldon­­ – Learning Technology Rover

Emily is in her 3rd Year of studies at UBC in the Faculty of Arts. She provides Tier-1 or basic educational technology support for faculty members and staff, as well as administrative support for the ETS office.  She will be supporting faculty and their use of learning technologies in a variety of ways, including drop in sessions, one-on-one appointments, and special events such as the upcoming Orientation to Learning Technologies (OLT).

Bruno Bachmann – Web Programmer – TLEF Project

Bruno works at ETS as a web programmer on the TLEF project, contributing to a digital sandbox and engaging Teacher Candidates with classroom technologies. He is beginning his second year of Computer Engineering at UBC in September. He was born in South Africa but has previously lived in Namibia, Ireland, and Chile. Working with people and technology is his passion, and some of his hobbies include game development and modelling. One day, Bruno hopes to develop fun or useful software that is used by people all over the world.
