ABSTRACT
Instructional designers and technologists use a variety of means for communicating with faculty. There are IT Newsletters, brown bag lunches, visiting speakers, listening tours, department meetings, lightning talks, email blasts, one-on-one meetings, hallway conversations, and the list goes on. The authors from Lyndon College and Williams College consider and compare the various paths available for communicating with faculty about technology projects and opportunities at small institutions. Best practices of the various outreach efforts will be shared.
