Panopto downtime on June 22

The Tech Hub is open all summer!
Summer is a perfect time to explore your options and practice using technology in the classroom. Make an appointment or stop by during our drop in hours and
- practice teaching untethered using an iPad to share to the classroom screen
- build ePortfolios for your students to use to document their course progress
- create videos you can share in your course using Panopto for desktop or the Learning Glass
- practice using PollEverywhere to introduce polling into your classroom activities
- learn how to use Zoom for office hours, or to bring in a remote guest speaker
