Digital Habitats: Stewarding Technology for Communities

Presentation abstract or description

Technology has changed what it means for people to "Be Together." We'll explore a tool to help look at how your learning community chooses to be together. The tool can be used to map activities to possible technologies, to assess the current status of a community or used to imaging the community's trajectory going forward.
