Digital Production Resource Center

Mission

  • The Digital Production Resource Center fosters collaborative teaching environments and builds learning communities. It helps promote Problem Based Learning (PBL) and Experiential Learning opportunities.

 

  • The Digital Production Resource Center serves as a resource to URI faculty, researchers, and their team of Student Technology Assistants. It provides many of the resources necessary to produce and deliver a wide range of professional, broadcast-quality multimedia instructional materials for the classroom and the Web.

 

  • In addition to the acquisition and creation of new digital material, URI faculty and researchers possess a tremendous amount of non-digital archived materials. Even at top-level research institutions such as URI, these materials often never get incorporated into the educational landscape. The Digital Production Resource Center (DPRC) provides the technical resources required to incorporate the non-digital material into a digital production environment. Once converted, this unique and important archived information will become part of students' educational experiences.
