SUMMARY:Faculty Seminars in Research & Instructional Technology
DESCRIPTION:
 Faculty Seminars are two days of short courses 
 designed to support faculty, academic staff, 
 and graduate assistants in their teaching and 
 research roles by providing seminars for online 
 learning and instruction in the use of a 
 variety of software tools. All sessions are 
 held at MSU in various technology classrooms 
 and computer labs across campus.\n
 \n
 We are offering 
 over 30 half-day and full-day courses 
 in face-to-face settings. You can choose from 
 one to four classes of the two day period, with 
 a free lunch each day in the Union Ballroom. 
 All courses are offered free to faculty and 
 academic staff.\n
