If you need special hands-on encounters with some of our technology, please schedule a meeting by calling Instructional Technology Central at Ext 3480. Please indicate the best day and time. Of course, you can always schedule an online virtual appointment so that you can learn more from your home or office. You simply need an Internet connection (phone is optional). Contact or e-mail Doug Borcoman at ext 2391 for details and to suggest other subjects of interest that we can cover in the future.
