The ITEC program at SFSU straddles both the physical and virtual worlds. Physically, it is located within the SFSU Department of Information Technology and Electronic Commerce. Virtually, it can be accessed from anywhere through online tools like iLearn, virtual conferencing, cloud computing using Google Docs and wikis, blogging, and the MyITEC social network created by ITEC students. These virtual elements allow ITEC students to connect, discuss, and learn from one another across distances.
