CELOP Technology Workshops—Summer 2008

We're putting together three practical workshops to help faculty and staff work with some of the new technology we have available at CELOP. These sessions will combine demonstration, hands-on practice, and Q&A. Please bring questions for us and tips for your colleagues. Based on the response we get, we may schedule more sessions. Session materials and links will also be available on the MLL Tutorials page.

All sessions will take place at 1:30 in MLL 257. No food or drink in the labs please.
