Whether you will be teaching with digital tools for the first time in the coming semester, or have already been doing so for some time, this workshop provides a focused and supportive environment for improving your practice. Tools and techniques covered in the workshop include online exhibitions, annotations, timelines, mapping, multimedia, visualization, and polling/classroom response tools.

Past participants have provided overwhelmingly positive feedback: one said their experience provided "a greater awareness of tools and resources that exist so that I will know where to go to make an assignment possible, and will be more conscious of what is available when I am thinking about designing an assignment," while another said that it offered "a really helpful introduction to a number of digital tools, with the additional benefits of feeling more oriented as to what tools are out there and knowing that there are people that I can reach out to for more help." Another participant has said that they, "will certainly be referring to the tools and resources I learned about in any teaching I may do!"

The seminar will be held remotely via Zoom, and a link will be provided to registrants prior to the event.
