Tech Time
What is Tech Time?
Tech Time events are presented by the Techranger team of Course Development & Web Services. They are presented to demonstrate the “nuts and bolts” functions of various computer-related applications. These sessions target intermediate to advanced web designers interested in furthering their web design skills. These are hands-on, in-depth sessions held in The Techranger Collaboratory for Faculty, Staff, and Campus Webmasters. Seating is limited so you must RSVP if interested.
While the Techranger team has had opportunity to present at various events in the recent years , Tech Time has been on temporary hiatus. As the team continues to expand they plan on reintroducing Tech Times. Contact Sheila Suarez if you are interested at having the Techrangers present for your oncampus event or class. Stay tuned for future events!
