ETO SPOTLIGHT RESOURCES

Curry's Educational Technologies Office (ETO) provides hands-on workshops and general presentation sessions on topics of interest to faculty and staff members at least once a month during the academic year. Some months ETO will offer such workshops on a weekly basis.

When possible, the workshops or presentations will be recorded and made available via streaming video (previously QuickTime movies, now Flash video) or audio. In addition to streaming media, ETO also makes available support materials for Spotlight topics in the form of step-by-step guides, Power Point presentations - when available - one-page help sheets, and links to related resources on the Web. The "Materials Matrix" below, in addition to showing you who lead the workshop and when, indicates what support materials we have for which topics. Clicking on an x next to a topic of interest in the grid will take you directly to that specific resource. Please note, guides and 1-page sheets are all in PDF format! "Date" columns with "n.d." in them mean that the corresponding Spotlight Topic was not an actual presentation but is, nonetheless, a topic for which ETO receives many requests for assistance.
