This 10-hour workshop focuses on development and delivery of technology-enhanced course content with an emphasis on three areas:

• Course management systems: using Telesis to organize and distribute course information
• New technologies for content management: Wikis, Blogs and more
• Effectively using PowerPoint for classroom presentation and delivery

There is no cost to departments or graduate students, but enrollment is limited
Workshops will be held in the Arc Technology Center, Olin Library Level A

The Graduate School of Arts & Sciences offers peer-led technology workshops to A&S graduate students each year. Workshop goals include preparing graduate students as future faculty and professionals working in an increasingly technology-intensive world and providing a strong foundation of technology skills and concepts for teaching.
