Computing Services has offered assistance with the NTNT technology fair, held this past September, and ongoing training and consulting efforts with Education Division faculty and students since then. Desktop videoconferencing is one of the key technologies being used. Beginning January 1, UMM Computing Services and the MCSA Forum are very pleased to invite new proposals for projects to be funded through the student technology fee in the 2000-01 academic year. The UMM student technology fee was recommended by the MCSA Forum and approved by the Board of Regents in spring 1997. MCSA Forum and UMM Computing Services make joint funding recommendations to the Chancellor, who makes the final decisions about funded projects each year.
All proposals become public information when submitted.
If you do not wish to submit a formal project proposal on your own behalf, but you have a suggestion for a technology fee project, those are welcome as well. Send your suggestions to John Bowers, Director of Computing Services. If the past is any indication, next year will bring another batch of interesting and exciting instructional technology projects to benefit UMM's students.
