Welcome to Ocotillo Retreat 1993

The theme for this year's Ocotillo retreat is Home 
Improvement. We have planned workshops and discus-
sions that focus on how our Maricopa family can use 
technology "tools" to enhance teaching and learningas 
well as to improve productivity within our Maricopa 
"home."

The agenda for the retreat indudes morning and 
afternoon sessions. During the morning, there will be 
five workshop tracks for Department/Division Chairs, 
Student Services, Faculty, Students, and 
Administrators. Presenters will describe different 
technology tools used by people in each track and will 
discuss issues related to utilization. We encourage 
you to attend and participate in the workshops.

In the aftemoon, there will be five discussion groups 
offered simultaneously:

   Delivey of Instruction
   Student Services Issues
   Network Conferencing
   Information Resources
   Access. 

You are welcome to attend any of the sessions. You 
will have the opportunity to interact with peers and 
dialogue about howcertain technology tools are being 
used to address these five areas and needs similar to 
ones you may have.

We hope the Ocotillo 1993 Home mpouement is a fruitful 
and meaningful experience, and that as a result of 
your participation, you are able to develop a plan or 
"blueprint" for how to usetechnology tools in your own 
environment.
