CILA Faculty Showcase Poster Session: “Teaching with Technology"
Tuesday, November 6
(Co-sponsor: Information and Instructional Technologies (IIT))
IIT and CILA invite you to our first “Faculty Showcase Poster Session: Teaching with Technology.” This is a great opportunity to see some of the innovative approaches to using technology for instructional purposes that have been developed by our colleagues. Most of these “posters” will be digital to give you the opportunity to experience the technologies firsthand. Representatives from IIT and the Libraries will also be available to demonstrate and to answer questions about technologies ranging from Sympodium, to iChat, to Endnote and more! A browsing lunch, consisting of hearty appetizers, will be available for you to enjoy as you move about from poster to poster.
