Beyond Annoying: Email that works for you (CDSC Workshop)

Nobody enjoys email. It takes up valuable time, distracts us from more important work, and clutters our lives with spam. In a word, it’s annoying. Yet most of us rely on email for professional and personal communication, turning our inboxes into a trove of sensitive personal information. That makes it crucial to understand both the full functionality of email services and the etiquette of email correspondence. This workshop will help participants get beyond the annoyance to make the most of their email by customizing settings, organizing messages, and prioritizing responses.

January 25, 3:10 – 4 p.m., Center for Digital Scholarship and Curation, 4th floor Holland Library

Registration is not required for this workshop.

Bringing a laptop to work on is encouraged, but not required.

Digital Literacy Workshops
The CDSC offers a series of workshops for WSU students seeking hands-on instruction in the foundations of digital literacy. Facility with digital tools is a fundamental prerequisite for joining any contemporary profession and, as with reading and writing skills, college instructors across the disciplines expect students to arrive on campus with a foundational level of digital literacy. These workshops help all students meet those expectations, regardless of major.
