The Unitarian Universalist Church of Augusta is sponsoring a series of technology workshops. The workshops offer a beginner-friendly
approach covering basic definitions of major new media tools,
explaining the advantages of each tool, and linking to specific examples
of how each tool can be used to promote Unitarian Universalism and
build community. Laptops are optional, but helpful as many of the sessions will be a combination of presentation, discussion and hands-on learning. Links to the PowerPoint presentations and recorded sessions are available on the Building Your Technology Toolbox wiki page.

PBworks wikis are highlighted as examples. Links to the
