Today Tim Hommey and I met with the Career Development team from the College of Business to discuss the COB Career Development LibGuide we have been working on the past couple months. I also transferred and copied the iMovie promo video files so I can work on the project on a different Mac computer.

Today I did some research into other academic technologies. One website I found was http://www.digitalclassroom.com/ and it contains tons of video tutorials, and written lessons for various academic technologies. What I really liked about this website was that it had a massive list of technologies. It had the basics that we support in IC (iMovie, Photoshop, Excel, DreamWeaver, WordPress, etc.) but it had almost every other software program available from Adobe, Microsoft, and iOS. The website is not free, so I didn’t get the chance to watch very many videos or see the content, but I think this could be a valuable tool for our student workers to use when learning new technologies, especially those that we do not currently specialize in.

 

I also stumbled upon an online computer science course from Harvard Extension school (basically Harvard online courses). The course is focused on “understanding” computers and intuitively knowing why computers do the things they do. I began listening to the first class meeting, and was quite impressed with the instructor and the way the information was presented. I plan to continue watching most of the course on my own time, but thought this could be a resource for new and existing IC workers who do not necessarily understand what goes on behind the computer screen. http://computerscience1.tv/2011/spring/

 

I also spent some time watching a few Ted talks from the digital lives playlist for professional development.
