Welcome to the #100percentdigital faculty & staff learning community!
Our first live meeting will take place this Wednesday, September 10, 3:30-4:30 pm in the Faculty Resource Center (FRC, Premont 110). We’ll be kicking off this community with an App mixer–a place to share your favorite iPad apps over appetizers. This meeting will also be a tech snack, so bring a friend with a mobile device even if they can’t take part in the community all semester.
Each member of the community has been added as an author on this blog. Please feel free to share your thoughts about going #100percentdigital here. If you need directions on how to post, follow this link, http://help.edublogs.org/writing-your-first-post/, or ask a fellow community member or an instructional technology staff member at the mixer on Wednesday.
