9:00am CST

Creating and Maintaining Your Online Presence
Limited Capacity seats available
 

This workshop will provide attendees a focused session to get up and running with your web domain and hosting account with OU Create (create.ou.edu) that can be used to build blogs, portfolios, wikis, and more. By the end of this session you will have gotten the following:

  • How to register a domain name
  • Understanding of a web hosting account (with instruction of how to manage it)
  • Instructions for installing at least one open source application on your web server (such as WordPress, Omeka, Drupal, MediaWiki etc.)
  • Instructions for publishing original content to your space

Sounds crazy, right? But it's not, taking control of your online presence and managing your own web space has never been easier. The goal of this workshop is to provide faculty, technologists, and administrators a hands-on overview of how the web works from the inside-out. In a moment when everyone is talking about controlling your data, learning to code, and web literacy---a sandbox space like this is invaluable for taking the first steps in truly interrogating how the web works.
