Last Friday, the Center for Instructional Innovation at my university sponsored two amazing workshops by Dr. Dakin Burdick titled, "The Lively Discussion:
Getting Students to Talk and Learn." Friday was a LONG day (1 hour to commute to campus, 2 hours of teaching, 1 hour of working with students, 1 hour of helping my students present a workshop through our Texas Social Media Research Institute), but I wanted to take time to attend Dr. Burdick's workshop. I strongly believe in professional development AND I believe in the effective use of university professional development funds (WHY would people decide NOT to attend a "free" ON-CAMPUS workshop)!
This workshop helped me develop some new ideas for my online and face-to-face classes! I LOVE new ideas!
Speaking of free workshops, Adobe has a webpage on their website titled, "Adobe Higher Education Faculty Development Workshops: Workshops for Using Digital Communication Tools in Teaching and Learning". These workshops form a great resource for online and face-to-face faculty in the higher education environment.
Each of the workshops listed below feature: a) a comprehensive workshop guide, b) PowerPoint Presentation, and c) assets.
- Web Graphics with Fireworks 8: Building Web Graphics
- Web Graphics with Dreamweaver: Building a Curriculum Vitae
- Multimedia with Flash 8: Building a Digital Narrative
- Website Consistency with Dreamweaver 8 and Fireworks 8: Building a Website Structure
- Web Communication with Contribute 3: Creating and Editing Web Pages
- Faculty and Student Communication with Adobe 8 Professional: Collaborating Through Interactive Documents
- Campus Communication with Acrobat 8 Professional: Enhancing Administrative Workflow
Question - For which workshop do you have the most interest?
Enjoy!
Sincerely,
J. Edwards
