Upcoming Spring Workshops for Web 2.0 Tools

Utilizing Web 2.0 Resources with myLesley

Spring is a time of renewal and awakening; the daffodils begin to bloom, the leaves return to the trees, and we enjoy the thaw from winter. As we anticipate the arrival of spring, this is an excellent time to freshen up your myLesley course sites. Perhaps you have been thinking about new tools or ideas you would like to try? Maybe you are experimenting with some new methods on your own and would like a little extra help? Whatever the case, the helpful staff in eLIS have a spring menu of workshops and online seminars and resources ready for you!

Below are highlights of some of our upcoming offerings. And remember, If you cannot make an event or an online seminar, you can always contact us directly at elis@lesley.edu to set up time to meet in person talk over the phone about your ideas.
