MAET News
Summer 2009 classes have come to a close! We had a great summer online, on campus and in Plymouth, England. One very exciting thing that happened this summer was our Jing-Off. Ken Dirkin and I challenged the MAET Year 3 students to create 9 screencasts in 10 minutes using Jing! You can read more about the challenge and see the results on the Jing Education Blog!
TechSmith also featured our “Jing-off” on their product blog.
To top it all off, all of our students won a free copy of Jing-Pro to take back to their classrooms! Keep your eye on the Jing Education Blog, they always run contests and highlight educators using their software!
We are looking forward to seeing those of you who have signed up for courses this fall. Very shortly you will be hearing from your fall instructors with instructions on accessing course materials. If you have any questions about your schedule, make sure to check http://stuinfo.msu.edu — if you see errors, please contact Emily Fink at finkemil@msu.edu.
