Do you live in Harford County? Classroom technology workshops for faculty are now available at Towson University in Northeastern Maryland (TUNE) and you do not have to teach at TUNE to participate in these sessions.
These one hour workshops are offered by the Office of Technology Services (OTS), and will help you master the features of the classroom audiovisual presentation systems, as well as use recording and collaboration software (WebEx and Panopto) to help energize your classes and engage your students.
The workshops are open to all faculty, not just our Harford County residents. If you’ve never visited the Towson University Northeastern Maryland location, this is a great opportunity to check it out! The facility opened two years ago, and is adjacent to Harford Community College.

Classroom Technologies and Planning for the Unexpected: This workshop will give you an overall knowledge of how to use the technology in the classroom (Crestron touch panel, podium equipment tips, and much more). It will also include teaching techniques and survival skills in the classroom. At the end of this session, you will have time to ask questions and to practice using the equipment.
Using Panopto in the Classroom: Panopto is an Instructional Recording system that can capture computer screens, audio and video (or any combination thereof) for later playback. Playback can be achieved by a sharable link or integrated into Blackboard courses. This workshop will cover how to use Panopto in a TUNE classroom.
Using WebEx in the Classroom: WebEx is a Web-based collaborative technology that allows users to share resources (documents, desktop, web-browser etc.) remotely and communicate with each other using voice, video and chat. This workshop will cover how to use WebEx in a TUNE classroom.
