Adobe Creative Campus is transforming teaching and learning
Fayetteville State University is the latest campus to join Adobe ’ s Creative Campus programme , which ensures students graduate equipped for a digital world .
A historically overlooked campus is the latest to benefit from an initiative from Adobe which is ensuring students graduate equipped for a digital world . Fayetteville State University ( FSU ) is the fourth Historically Black College and University ( HBCU ) to become an officially designated Adobe Creative Campus , which helps prepare students to be digital global citizens , says Todd Taylor , a Pedagogical Evangelist at Adobe .
“ We know students are on their devices , and so often those things are done just for transactional purposes or entertainment purposes ,” says Taylor . “ The idea is that these very important technologies need to be part of the curriculum . “ What Adobe allowed us to do is elevate the digital literacy of our students ,” says Dr Hector Molina , Vice Chancellor for IT and CIO at FSU . “ Adobe Creative Campus ’ designation has really allowed us to level up what we offer our students .”
Other institutions have already embraced the benefits of the Creative Campus - and Taylor is looking forward to seeing how FSU students use the tools available . “ The partnership between FSU and Adobe is just beginning and we ’ re off to an amazing start ,” Taylor adds .
“ Maybe they ’ re interested in career branding portfolios , or maybe they ’ re interested in creating media content for the metaverse . Regardless of their major , or their career path , becoming a digital communicator is something we know everyone needs in today ’ s economies and cultures .”
It ’ s an exciting time to be partnering with campuses like FSU , who realise how essential this is for their students ’ progress , Taylor concludes .
“ It ’ s great to see FSU , a historically overlooked and under-resourced campus , now get these kinds of opportunities to really create meaningful careers and pathways to careers for their students . “ We have a long way to go , but this partnership between Fayetteville State and Adobe is a great place to start .”
