I am also looking forward to our lecture next

Community Highlight:
Victoria
|
|
Last quarter, Victoria participated in
our "Digital Tools for Creative Expression" program series. The
course goes over various creative platforms such as Instagram and Canva.
We offer one-off lectures on some of these topics, so keep your eyes
peeled! Here are a few words from Victoria:
 "The program
series introduced me to new technology and gave me the self-confidence to
start using it. I was successful in downloading a picture from Canva and
getting it onto Zoom. I have signed up for Google Photos and hope to get
all my photos downloaded. I have a much better understanding of
Instagram, Enwoven, and Canva. I am hoping to learn about uploading my
old photos in another class."
Victoria also said: "Not only have I learned
from the teachers, but also from others in the class. They have kept me busy
and my mind off COVID."
