Staff Development Day – March 4, 2010

On Thursday, March 4, 2010, Gene Smith and I will be giving two presentations on the use of the smartboard sympodium in Holly 214.  The presentations will begin at 8:30 and 10:30.

We will focus on ways the sympodium can be used to improve classroom instruction at WCC.  Some of the items that will be discussed include:

How to use the sympodium’s electronic ink capture feature.

How to save your power points as a wmv file that can include both audio and video information that can be uploaded to blackboard for student review.

The use of WCC’s audio server and Audacity with Blackboard.

The use of WCC’s Libraries electronic media service.

The use of a WCC faculty web page and twitter as an instructional aid.

How Twitter can be used as a method of classroom social interaction and as a class management tool.

So if these topics are of interest to you, then stop by Holly 214 to find out more.
