Session: Applying Microlearning with Camtasia

Terry Locklear holds a B.A. in American Indian Studies (AIS) from UNC Pembroke and an M.S. in Instructional Technology from East Carolina University. He is in the dissertation phase of a Doctoral Degree from UNC Wilmington in Higher Education Administration.

Locklear has worked in UNCP's Office of Online Learning since 2004 and has served his Alma Mater in various professional capacities. Most notably, he was UNCP's Staff Council Chair (2012-2014) and was part of the UNC Staff Assembly's Executive Committee (2013-2016). Locklear has also served on various university committees, including the most recent Chancellor's Search Committee and the University Oversight Committee.

Locklear considers his AIS degree among his proudest accomplishments. The program led him to discover a passion for Native populations. That passion is why he remains at UNCP today. In his Doctoral program, Locklear is conducting research on how Universities can better serve Native students in the online environment.

Locklear has served on the Board of Education for The Robeson County Public Schools since July of 2020.
