Join us for an ongoing discussion of the future of Academic Technology

During these difficult times the campus community still needs to plan for the future. The event on October 30 is being held by Faculty for Faculty and should be an academically stimulating event which hopefully will provide some definite direction on how to use technology to improve the teaching and learning experience. Please watch the following 3 short videos (about 11 minutes in its entirety) to get a flavor for this event and then RSVP here.

10/30/09 - 8:30 to 11:30 at the Clarke Field House Grand Salon
