Tip of the Day: 100th Tip of the Day

Last week marked the milestone of 100 Tip of the Day blog posts. We started the Tip of the Day blog to highlight ideas for using technology and to respond to questions. As of today, the site has been visited more than 7000 times. The past few months have seen on average over 1000 visits each month. A large concentration of tips have focused on Zoom. Some topics have been repeated as Zoom has evolved and brought about changes in the way things are done. We have also covered topics dealing with Canvas, Google Docs, Google Slides, Powerpoint, Jamboard, as well as general topics related to language teaching.

The Language Center has a team that plans and contributes to the Tip site. You will read posts from Beth Kautz, Carter Griffith, Chee-ia Thao, Jonathan Prestrud, Stephanie Treat, Diane Rackowski (emeritus), and me. In addition to Language Center staff, several language instructors have contributed tips from their experiences. Many thanks to Brian Barnett, Emily Groepper, Ginny Steinhagen, Kate Paesani, Lauren Goodspeed, Lydia Belateche and Zhen Zou for their useful ideas.
