In this blended (face-to-face and online) workshop, you will identify a specific goal or task you want to accomplish in your classroom or advising practice, and then learn how to select a technology tool that can best help you meet your goals and the goals of your students.

With a clear purpose in mind, we will investigate free, user-friendly tools such as Google Drive, Remind, Facebook, and resources such as the Massachusetts Career Information System (MassCIS) and College for Adults, among others. Come ready to share resources and practices you have found to be successful.
