Academics are busy enough doing academic research. We don’t have the time to research new technologies, too. So you don’t have to, I research new technologies that will make your work life more efficient with tools that are easy to master. As a session attendee once put it, “Oh! You talk about technology that I will actually use!” Some of the tech tools that academics actually use are Phrase Express, Ditto, Plickers, LastPass, Nudgemail, and Trello. While I won’t demonstrate all of this essential technology, you will leave with a handout of over 40 tools you can try later.
