Introduction to Drupal 7
This workshop introduces users to the basic functions for creating and publishing content to a Drupal 7 website at Appalachian. Users who will be maintaining a website are required to attend. Please note the prerequisites.

Having a Drupal site is a prerequisite because we have found that it is easier to retain information from the workshop if you have a site to work on already. However, people who are interested in learning how to use Drupal are welcome to attend as well.

Take this quick Zoom starter session as part of your spring semester planning - you’ll be surprised at how easy it is and how connected you’ll feel to the folks you meet with, even in an online setting. You can do almost anything in Zoom that you can in person, including have students work on documents in breakout groups, record meetings for those who can’t make it, and conference with students privately. Everyone with an AppState Gmail already has a Zoom account, so it’s the perfect solution for our weathery world. What are you waiting for?

The session will be held in a Zoom room. The link for the room will be sent with registration.
