About LITE

The Laboratory for Innovative Technology in Education, was established in 2003 after the College of Education received a $500,000 award from the Houston Endowment. This award is being used to create a collaborative learning environment in which students, faculty, pre-service and in-service teachers along with community partners can explore ways to combine best teaching practices with the most powerful instructional technology tools to create educational projects and resources that reflect Houston’s rich educational and cultural diversity. If you visit Room 315 Farish Hall, and we hope you will, you will find a group of talented and motivated people at the heart of the Laboratory for Innovative Technology in Education. So far, four COE doctoral students have been recruited to work and study in the LITE on a variety of technology-rich projects that you may read about in more detail on the reverse side of this page. In addition, CITE Lab staff members and other grant project participants are housed in the LITE and they too, are seeking ways to use instructional technologies in new and meaningful ways that we feel demonstrate the quality and creativity that is part of our college and university. We invite you to stop by and let us tell you about the projects and activities that have us so excited.
