Welcome to Extension Quick Bytes, online technology enrichment for Extension employees!

The main barrier to learning new technologies is having the TIME. Quick Bytes makes it easy to include keeping up with technology part of your routine. With only about 30 minutes a week, you can learn about a current digital tool. You can even have the units sent right to your email!

"Quick Bytes" are bite-sized introductions to a wide variety of today's technology. You will finish each quick and fun unit having seen each technology with your own eyes, learned some potential uses for it, and knowing where to get more information. Comments and discussion are strongly encouraged!

Our goals with this curriculum are to:

  1. increase familiarity with technology, specifically educational technology
  2. model a learner-centered online learning environment
  3. create a community of lifelong tech learners among a geographically distributed audience

Thanks for being part of this learning adventure!
