CELT Announces Google Apps Support Groups

A number of faculty are using Google Apps in the classroom this semester (or planning to use Google Apps next semester). In order to better support faculty who are using Google Apps, CELT is putting together a support group. The group would primarily interact via an online forum, with occasional face-to-face meetings.

We anticipate discussions in the group will cover a wide range of subjects -- from how to integrate a wiki or blog into a course, to the finer points of tweaking privacy settings. CELT staff will facilitate discussions in the group, but most of the value will be faculty-to-faculty information sharing. If you are using Google Apps in the classroom, or just interested to find out how others are using Web 2.0 technology in their own instruction, please consider joining the group. Lurkers are welcome!

You can sign up for the support group here. Group traffic is expected to be relatively low, but you will have the option to set mail preferences to “digest” or "online-only" if you are concerned about email volume.

We look forward to seeing you in the group!
