from Samantha Earp

Dear colleagues,

Attached below is an invitation to a Web event Duke is hosting this 
Thursday about the ongoing Duke Digital Initiative. Our language programs 
and departments have been some the most active participants in this 
program, so I thought this might be of interest to some of you.

Best,
Samantha Earp
Head, Instructional Media & Language Technology Support

Duke University invites you to participate in a live webcast Thursday, 
July 27 to discuss results from an evaluation of the expanded 2005-2006 
version of the Duke Digital Initiative (DDI). 
The DDI is a groundbreaking multi-year program of experimentation, 
development, and implementation of new and emerging technologies which has 
grown from an iPod-only focus in 2004 to present-day incorporation of 
tablet PCs and handheld computers, collaborative learning tools, 
podcasting, and digital recording and distribution of classroom lectures. 
The July 27 webcast $E2Ai scheduled from 2-3 p.m. Eastern Time $E2Ai will
provide 
updates on the explosive growth in the use of these technologies at Duke, 
and a live Q&A session will feature panelists answering viewer emails 
about digital technology. You can submit your questions in advance or 
during the event via [log in to unmask]
A link to the webcast will be available on July 27 via www.duke.edu/ddi. 
Video interviews with faculty participating in DDI programs and a copy of 
the DDI evaluation are available on the DDI website prior to the webcast, 
and a copy of the event will be archived for future reference.
If you have questions please email [log in to unmask] or conta
