Virtually.
Computers and the Internet have
revolutionized the way families communicate. This course will highlight a few
specific ways to use your computer and the Internet to build and strengthen
family ties. Topics will include using multimedia techniques to preserve and
share family photographs, build an online family tree, creating virtual family
history tours/videos, creating online family newsletters, digitizing
scrapbooks, publishing an online family history and creating and maintaining
family websites, using communication tools such as Skype or FaceTime, and using
social media (blogs, Facebook, and Twitter) to find long lost cousins, and stay
in touch with relatives.
This course is a complete course (not an abridged version) in the National Institutes for Genealogical Studies' program and has a value of $89.00.
A brochure and course gift certificate with sign up instructions will be included with each attendee's packet at registration.
