- How does texting in classroom change pedagogy?
- How much of technological consumption is passive versus active? How does that change how students engage?
- Should there be questions about the infallibility of the databases we expect our students to use?
- Students need to know how to make a basic MLA paper template.
- They also need to know how to backup their work. Where is that taught?
- Should the MLA template be submitted and assessed? (This is a great idea)
- What about accessibility issues?
- Students need to know what a URL is!
- There needs to be a logic to file naming for both professor and student.

Workshop Proposal #1: Backing Up Your Google Drive

What Is ThatCamp Community College?
That Camp Community College is an unconference. What is an unconference? An unconference is run and driven by those attending the meeting. Since 2009, ThatCamps around the world have popularized the unconference (even more mainstreram organizations like the NJEA are embracing the unconference). An unconference should do the following:
- The schedule for the day with be determined by those attending on the day of the event
- Anyone attending can propose a session
- Anyone can lead a session, which will be much more conversational than the traditional conference panel
- Attendees may come and go as they feel. If an attendee does not like a session they may freely move to another
As of now, it looks like we will have at least six slots for sessions plus three for workshops. As March goes on, these details will be narrowed down a bit more. Stay tuned.
