Abstract

Communication centers regularly use tools to shape and augment their pedagogical practices. It can be difficult to choose what new tool to purchase, especially without understanding how that tool can be applied during a tutoring session. By analyzing the Georgia Tech Communication Center's own usage of tools during tutoring sessions and then mapping these tools to specific affordances, this article provides both an index of how prospective  tools are used and some basic questions to ask while investigating these tools' applicability to a communication center.
