Workshops
Educational Technology hosted some more virtual workshops this semester. You can watch the previous workshops via our Educational Technology Support Videos in our Workshops Channel.
Multifactor Authentication Over the Summer
If you or your students know you or your students are going to be in a country where your cell phone dialing and service plan are not active, you will need to setup the mobile authenticator application with Wi-Fi. To find out more information about this, please see our post on Multifactor Authentication Over the Summer.
Moodle Tips
As the semester winds down, Technology@Wooster would just like to remind everyone about our Moodle Professional Development course. Our Moodle Professional Development course has a wonderful collection of resources that you might needs for using Moodle. Check out the resources in our Moodle Professional Development course.
