WordPress 1: Establishing a Digital Academic Identity
The purpose of this workshop is to familiarize participants with the WordPress platform while creating a digital academic identity on the CUNY Commons. We will focus on the main design and content components of a WordPress site, including theme editing, managing content, custom menus and image use*. We will create a WordPress site on the CUNY Commons that can be used as a digital CV, a blog, or both. The workshop will be hosted by Andrew G. McKinney and Laura Kane.
We recommend that attendees come prepared with their CV (digital format preferred) and / or a blog idea or sample blog post. If you are not already a member of the CUNY Commons, we recommend that you sign up before the workshop.
