Overview & Purpose:

To learn the various available “content types” in the platform, and how and why to use them. 
 

Objectives:

• To be able to create Event, News, and People content
• to understand how this content can automatically appear in lists throughout your site.

Hybrid Classes:

Classes will be held at 701 Carnegie Center, Room #131 (PC Training Room). There is room for 12 in-person attendees, on a first-come, first-serve basis. If you have a specific preference for attending either in-person or remotely, be sure to email the instructor at [email protected].

A Zoom link will be emailed to participants prior to class. Please note: you must be logged into Zoom with your University account in order to attend class.
 

Materials:

Feel free to review the class outlines ahead of time. They are available in this Google drive directory.

We will be using WDS’ dedicated training site in class.
 

Requirements:

If you plan to attend class in-person, the classroom is equipped with up-to-date computers with 24-inch monitors. You are also welcome to bring your own laptops.

If you are planning to attend class via Zoom, it is strongly recommended that you have either a large single computer monitor, or multiple monitors. The class is hands-on in nature, so you will need to have room for your web browser in which you will be conducting class exercises, as well as your Zoom screen in which I will be demonstrating how to conduct the exercises.

If you do not have access to a large enough monitor to contain both your browser and the needed Zoom windows, please attend the class in-person.

If you are attending class over Zoom, it is requested that you have your camera on; after so many years on Zoom, I have grown weary of having little-to-no interaction with many of the Zoom attendees.
