Cornell faculty members gathered for an academic technology fair Thursday afternoon, where they presented on new technologies they have used for instruction and research.

At the event, faculty presented ePortfolios, a digital collection of information used to demonstrate development or evidences in learning outcomes, skills or competencies; Panopto, a program that synchronizes lecture video with its slideshow presentation; Blackboard’s updated quizzing feature; and Webex, a webinar application for online class collaboration.
