WHAT'S NEW in the DWC?
New Webinars for July Session
In May, we launched the Research with Google and AI and the Ethical AI webinars. This session, we'll run both of those again AND add a new webinar on presenting with professional-level power. Go to the LIVE Events page to learn more and register!
Join the Writer's Room Hangouts
This drop-in Engageli room is a place to get stuff done in the quiet company of others. Sounds like the dreaded high school study hall or boring college library workspace, but "body doubling" (being and doing in the presence of others) really helps people stay focused while offering community and accountability. Each Hangout is hosted by a professor who can help with any communication or general tutoring needs. Tables can be used for tutoring, group meetings, and more.
Go to the LIVE Events page for the Hangout schedule and the link to join the fun!
