Presentation: Mobile Technologies and Adobe

I was asked to present on “Mobile Technologies and Adobe” for a Web Development course for educators at the University of Denver. The presentation is a modified and updated version of one I did for COLTT in Boulder over the Summer.

I’ve gotten into the habit of recording all of my presentations if they are not being otherwise recorded or broadcast. This not only helps me to review my delivery and make adjustments in future sessions, but also allows other people with similar interests to benefit after the fact.

The new Adobe Education Exchange is a web-based community that allows people to collaborate, share resources, network, and generate ideas and discussions around using Adobe solutions in and around the classroom.

Members of the Adobe education team, along with input from a group of Adobe Education Leaders, have been working on this project for months and are thrilled to announce that the project has now been officially launched and is available for anyone to access and use!

This is a resource for all facets of education: K-12, Higher Education, Colleges, Universities… admins, faculty, staff… whoever is working with Adobe technologies in education.

You can see a small subset of materials and resources available by visiting http://edexchange.adobe.com/, but to truly get the most out of this resource, you will want to sign up with your Adobe ID and fill out your personal profile.
