Technology Picks of the Week


Tom's Pick

Microsoft Bluetooth Wireless Arc Mouse

Update from November 2014:
Sway Presentation Service now open to the Public. 

Sway is a new way to present content that is very easy to use to create your own custom content. A huge bonus is that it uses HTML5 and therefore is cross-platform that can be viewed from Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, and Chromebook devices. Sway uses responsive-design so that content can be created once and then will automatically re-format the content based upon the device it is view upon. This is particularly nice for content that will be viewed on mobile devices many of our students now have available.






Cindy's Pick

Bluetooth Wireless Headphones

Mike's Pick
