Community of Educational Technology Support (ComETS)

ComETS is an Iowa State University community that promotes dialog and events focused on technology in learning & teaching. ComETS is intended to be a university-wide community where ideas and resources can be shared, and debate can occur on future technology directions at ISU. ComETS is open to all interested ISU faculty and staff.

ComETS objectives:

Facilitate dialog about learning & teaching technology issues facing ISU
Focus faculty needs to help provide direction to technology providers
Inform and educate one another about campus technology initiatives
Coordinate and provide a periodic learning and teaching technology event for the entire campus community
Provide a vehicle to bring national technology issues and trends to the broader ISU community

ComETS has established a listserve to maintain dialog about, share news, and to publicize events related to educational technology at Iowa State. Any interested faculty, staff, and graduate students are welcome to participate. Subscribe to the ComETS listserve here, or click "Subscribe" in the menu on the left.
