This event is being adapted into EdTech Connect, one of our other programs for Spring 2025. We hope you will join us there for live discussions on AI in Teaching and Learning.
Tech Bytes is an in-person, informal discussion group with faculty in mind. Each month we offer this time to discuss various topics. This is open discussion, so if there is a curiosity or pressing matter come and drop in. There is a email group sign up to receive notices. Each month we try to send a reminder email. Where applicable it will include an article, research paper, weblink or other resource to frame the topic and initial conversations, but conversations may wander to other topics. We look forward to chatting with you.
