Welcome
Welcome to the University of Mary Washington New Media Center. The UMWNMC is a sub-division of the Division of Teaching and Learning Technologies (DTLT), and occupies a mostly virtual space at the University. The center will, as part of its mission, provide research, oversee development, and offer production assistance for new media approaches to supporting technology-enhanced and online learning at UMW.
The University of Mary Washington is a member of the New Media Consortium, which we joined in 2007. The NMC provides programs and services that foster the exploration of new media and new technologies. The NMC provides an annual Horizon Project that reports on the emerging technologies in education. It maintains a “virtual campus” in Second Life, the largest educational presence in that virtual world. These and other NMC Projects provide Mary Washington with a valuable partner in the field of new media. A contingent from UMW attended the 2007 Summer Conference in Indianapolis, Indiana, and the 2008 Summer Conference in Princeton, New Jersey.
