 From Joe Williams! 

Just a reminder here of what the DMC staff does and does not do!

The DMC staff does:
·         Help students, faculty, and staff with any kind of digital project. We help with basic things like using Word and PowerPoint, and more complicated things like editing videos or recording a podcast.
·         Help patrons with scanning questions that ASD staff can’t answer.
·         Help patrons take audio or video files off of camcorders and audio recorders, and turn them into a finished product.
·         Help patrons use our presentation practice room to video-record themselves.

The DMC staff does not:
·         Loan any kind of technology. We do not loan anything at all in the DMC.
·         Film or record things for patrons.
 
The DMC has equipment installed that lets patrons do the following:
·         Record a presentation (in the Presentation Practice Room or our Media Editing Rooms)
·         Record audio (in the Media Editing Rooms)
·         Work together in groups using a computer with a large monitor (in the Consultation Rooms)

All of the DMC rooms can be scheduled through the room reservation scheduler:
·         Media Editing Rooms
·         Presentation Practice Room
·         Group Study Room (no technology in this room)
·         Consultation Rooms

Our partners in the DMC, the Digital A.C.T. Studio, help and consult with students on creating, wording, and shaping the content in a digital project. They make sure the media is conveying the ideas effectively. You can learn more about their services at http://digitalliteracycenter.uncg.edu/

Please let me, Armondo, or Rick know if you have any questions at all about the DMC.
