Welcome back! Hope that your time off was relaxing and your return rewarding. As this is a new year, it seems appropriate to use this time to launch new programs and ventures. In an effort to improve the flow if information and share with the community the wonderful things that are taking place across campus in the area of educational technology as well as the latest advances in technology, learning theories and effective use of computers as tools for learning.
