Come to the next installment of Teaching with Technology Tuesdays and learn how to invite guest speakers from anywhere in the world to your classroom using the popular computer software program Skype. While in-person engagements can be inconvenient and costly, video conferencing allows educators to invite guest speakers to the classroom by turning their personal computers into inexpensive audio and video communication systems.

Mary Barr, Lecturer in African American Studies, will discuss videoconferencing as a pedagogical tool and Matthew Regan from the Instructional Technology Group, will summarize voice over internet protocol (VoIP).
