[ED-TECH] Fun Friday & Writing Tablet Training

TOMORROW at Fun Friday, 12:20 pm - 1:10 PM, Richter Library, Room 305, Faculty Exploratory, we will demo Adobe Acrobat's incredible ability to convert scanned documents so that you can search them, and the versatile and free Handbrake program for converting videos to various formats. Don't miss this chance to learn new things about technology. Bring your lunch from home or stop by the University Center food court or Subway in the Law School and pick something up to eat during the presentation.

This coming TUESDAY, April 28, there will be two opportunities to learn about the writing tables available in the Memorial, Learning Center, and Residential College Classrooms. You will learn to use the SMART Notebook software to prepare and deliver lecture material, writing directly on it during the presentation. If you use these classrooms, I urge you to attend one of these sessions, either 12:30 PM to 2:30 PM (almost full at the moment) or 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM.
