Technology is a constant in all of our lives, at work, at home, and
at play. As it is an ever changing field, it is difficult to keep your
knowledge up to date. While technology information is abundant and
readily available, collectively, it is difficult and time consuming to
gather this information in one location.
In an effort to better serve and meet the needs of our campus
community, Information Technology User Services staff have launched
a quarterly technology news e-magazine. Articles will cover topics
regarding technology use, hardware/devices, software, apps, security,
and events, as well as spotlighting projects involving Information Technology.
TechTalk is considered our tool to inform the campus community of ways to use
technology, to know what and where technology is available, to become more effective and
efficient when using technology, and bring an awareness of technology events that may
affect the campus community.
Students, faculty, and staff are encouraged to participate in this quarterly endeavor by 1)
alerting us of your interest to learn more about a particular technology or 2) becoming an
author by submitting an article
( http://www.semo.edu/it/tech-talk/request-topic.htmlor
UserServices@semo.edu ). Help us meet your technology needs, as well as the needs of
this campus! Consider spotlighting or introducing a technology used in your department or
at home.
