April 2008
Podcasting, Educational Blogging, Virtual Worlds and More.
This semester the Educational Technology Center offered a number of short demonstrations to introduce you to new technologies and ideas you can use to enhance your teaching. Although the demos were not hands-on, we offer links to self-paced tutorials so you can try out the ideas on your own. Or you can come to the EdTech Center at your convenience for help from one of the EdTech Center’s co-op students. We will offer similar demos summer semester, so if you missed out, look for these topics again this summer and in the fall.
