For our June chapter event, rather than the usual evening presentation, we’re holding a half-day event during the afternoon focused entirely on e-learning. If you create video tutorials, screencasts, or other multimedia formats for your instructional content, or you want to learn how to develop e-learning content, this event is for you.

The afternoon will include three presentations. The first presentation will be a webinar from the STC Instructional Design and Learning group on e-learning tools. Joe Christensen will follow the webinar to present about creating e-learning tutorials. Following Joe’s presentation, Tom Johnson will present on developing a personal voice in audio. Descriptions of each presentation are below. Let us know if you plan to attend by adding a comment to this post.

Cost: $15 (lunch provided)
Location: 5215 Wiley Place,  Salt Lake City
