Webinar: Using Free Technologies to Support Effective Campus-Community Partnerships

Thursday, August 18, 2011 - 1:00-2:00 PM (Central Time)

An ever-expanding array of free technology resources is available to support innovative and effective campus-community partnerships. Many well-known and lesser-known social media platforms are well-suited to community engagement efforts. Most of these technologies are fully accessible via the mobile phone in nearly every student’s pocket and require very little technical expertise to employ. As early adopters, students are open to using these new tools, suggesting an opportunity to cultivate and demonstrate student leadership.

Join us for an energetic, easy to understand and example-filled look at innovative uses of freely available, relatively easy-to-use Web and mobile phone technologies to collect data, raise money, deliver services, document and assess projects and much more.

Presenter
John Hamerlinck is the Associate Director of Minnesota Campus Compact and leads its Center for Digital Civic Engagement, a project intended to link innovative and practical technology use to higher education's civic engagement efforts.
