Tech Bytes with Student Learning Technologies

There will not be a Tech Bytes on April 1st due to Summer and Fall registration opening that day.  Visit Student Learning Technologies in the ASC if you need assistance with using IVCC Self-Service in the registration process--we will be ready to assist students at 9AM on April 1st (you can use IVCC Self-Service to register online at 9AM before the in-person registration opens at 10AM).

Bring your lunch or grab a snack with us while you learn! Join us April 8th sometime between 11:30am-12:30pm in the Active Learning Space, A-201, to learn how to log in to your IVCC student email (Eagle Mail) and Brightspace. We can also give you other tech tips and tricks concerning tech-related questions you may have about your IVCC tech needs.  So, drop in for a byte!  (We have snacks!)

Important:  Have you met with your counselor to be sure you are on target with your courses?  Call Counseling at 815-224-0360 to make an appointment or learn when they have drop-in hours.

What is Tech Bytes?

Tech Bytes with Student Learning Technologies is a new weekly tech session where students can bring their lunch and stop in to learn about the week's topic.  We also have snacks!  Over the weeks, the topics may cover the free Microsoft apps available to IVCC students, file management, IVCC Webpage navigation, accessibility tools, shortcut keys, and more!  If you have a topic for us to consider, please send an email to slt@ivcc.edu.

Tech Bytes is a microlearning session.  Microlearning is learning something in 2-20 minutes--a short burst of concentration.  No need to stay for the entire hour--you can join us before class, after class, before a noon organization meeting, or during your lunch.  Join us, learn, and take away!
