. Announcement of Summer Graduate Workshops 2007

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
  • Creating a presence for your class on the web - without learning html

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. Additional information will be available soon.

*Completion satisfies one workshop/seminar requirement for award of the Teaching Citation
