Hello from our new blog space for UWT in the digital age.
Our beautiful urban-serving campus is a unique place for students, faculty and staff to learn, explore, dream and invent. We love the challenge, but it often seems that things change so quickly, and that technology is pressing down on us at ever maddening paces.
This blog is here to help, keeping you informed of what's new in faculty tools, ideas and practice. We've heard from a number of you that there's often no longer time for "just in case" training, that you need "just in time" (JIT) answers and "just whenever" access to ideas. Got it!
When too busy to visit, this blog, created by request and in the spirit of whenever you want it information retrieval, will capture some of the ideas and conversations shared in the FRC. It may not be as warm and fuzzy as attending the events in person, but you'll be able visit this site anytime: in your pajamas/at 5am/while on hold or on the bus. We'll include updates on faculty practice and campus data. Our students will share posts on their ideas, needs, hopes and frustrations regarding technology at UWT. If there are topics you'd like to see covered, let us know.
Now, how about a spot of tea?

- We're moving many JIT answers to our new TLT Web site.
- We'll use this space to profile some exciting work being done in the classroom: whether in class, flipped or online.
- We'll share stories, successes and hard-earned tips from colleagues.
- We'll post news and ideas from UWT and news from the internet on technology innovators in higher education.
