Hi, folks.
I would like to invite you or your campus constituency to participate
in Truman's Sixth Annual Technology Fair that the Teaching / Learning
Technology Roundtable (TLTR) is sponsoring, to be held during
University Conference next Wednesday afternoon (Feb. 20) in the SUB
Activities Room from 1:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. If you cannot be there for
that entire time bloc, we'd be happy to have you with us for as long
as you can be in attendance.
The constituencies I am specifically associating you with are the
following:
ITS: George Beshears, Matt Farwell
Library: Richard Coughlin
TWiCS: Molly Smith
FSCK: Jason Novinger
ACM: Matt Perry
CGA: Matt Perry
Registrar: Nancy Asher
Blackboard: Sherry Dare
TLTC: Sherry Dare
Media Services: Cinda Mitchell
Apple: Shelly Pagliai, Blake Larson
MUG: Kyle Rowan, Bryan De Guzman
Online quizzes
(or Portfolio Project?): Karen Smith
Instructional tech: Diane Richmond
CTL: Julie Lochbaum
Former TruTech
Challenge winners: Jon Beck, Fred Shaffer, Paula Cochran and the TSR
student research group, Jan Saffir, Diane Johnson and her student
research group
The focus of the Tech Fair is uses of technology that in some way
facilitate learning or other aspects of the University mission. I'd
like cordially to invite each of you (or a member of your
organization) to have a booth at the Fair— it'd be an excellent
opportunity for the campus community to learn more about the important
work you are doing or have done at Truman. The booth will give you
about four feet of table space and a couple chairs (plus an optional
backboard) for posters and other displays.
Note that the Tech Fair is distinct from the TruTech Challenge, though
projects for this year's Challenge will also be exhibiting at the Fair.
If you'd like to have a booth at the Fair, I'd encourage you or
someone from your constituency to please let me know as soon as
possible (and by no later than this upcoming Sunday, Feb. 17) your
answers to the following questions, so that we can make accommodations
for your equipment needs:
-- Do you need a backdrop for hanging posters?
-- Do you need a wired or wireless Internet connection? If so, which
one?
-- How many electrical outlets will you need?
-- Do you need a laptop or desktop computer? If so, which one?
-- Is there any other equipment you will be needing for the Fair? If
so, please specify.
-- What title would you like on your sign? (Given the small size of
the signs, the maximum suggested length is 7-10 words.)
Please let me know if you have any questions. I hope you might be
able to participate in the Fair.
--- Chad
