AAM's Media & Technology Committee is working with AAM to have a large offering of Tech Tutorials at the 2014 annual conference in Seattle. These tutorials are 75-minute nuts-and-bolts sessions on various tech topics, from social media, to video production, to mobile development, and copyright issues. In the past these have worked best with teams of 2-3 people team-teaching them.
A call for instructors is included in AAM's session proposals, but our response has been spotty. We also need to have a museum staff person on each instructor team, so we're putting out a call again. If you are interested in teaching one of these, please fill out this form by Monday, Sept 30: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1cM0NJODdqrRQIk_T9ksUu0j02f1mdjnwEdVBWJp4tJw/viewform A list of all the proposed tutorials, with descriptions, is available here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/15L5Hrr2Em_kVR4vVHNRN9CtBOLmYe5N0kNn635-JGZ0/edit?usp=sharing Descriptions are also available within AAM's session proposal listing online (http://www.aam-us.org/events/annual-meeting/proposals/ (Filter for Media & Technology, and then look for sessions beginning with "Tech Tutorial.") Note that AAM has not yet approved these for the final program, but they seem keen on including them. Thanks! - Susan Susan Edwards Sr. Writer/Editor, Web Group J.
