This semester, the Digital Fellows at the Graduate Center are offering free workshops for all students and faculty. These workshops will go beyond introducing you to software and websites; we’ll be suggesting new, digital solutions to ongoing research problems. Please join us for our latest workshop of the Spring 2013 term:

Using WordPress Academically: Creating and Editing a WordPress Site to Establish an Online Academic Identity.

Wednesday, February 27th 2013 – 6:30-8:30pm; Room C196.01

The purpose of this workshop is to familiarize participants with the WordPress platform while creating a digital academic identity on the CUNY Commons.  We will focus on the main design and content components of a WordPress site, including theme editing, managing content, plugin capability and image use.  We will create a WordPress site on the CUNY Commons that can be used as a digital CV, a blog, or both.  The workshop will be hosted by Andrew G. McKinney and Laura Kane.

If you would like to attend the workshop, please RSVP here: Eventbrite

We recommend that attendees come prepared with their CV (digital format preferred) and / or a blog idea or sample blog post.  If you are not already a member of the CUNY Commons, we recommend that you sign up before the workshop.
