- Is technology scaring your faculty and extension educators? Come hear how Penn State is trying to overcome this fear. This will be a presentation on the process of developing, delivering, and evaluating a Technology Boot Camp for Cooperative Extension educators. The technology boot camp was a two-day conference which included a general session on enhancing online communication skills. Also featured were hands-on experiences to create podcasts, blogs, and wikis for reaching larger audiences, and discussions related to other emerging Web 2.0 Technologies. Along with learning opportunities, educators had the opportunity to showcase previous successes with Web 2.0 Technologies and to network with colleagues
