Communicate
Facilitate the communication of ideas through graphic design, web design, audio, video and social media.
Web design
The IRC maintains most of the core departmental Web sites and produces one to three new designs per quarter. Please contact us if you are interested in the following:
- creating an original Web site for research, instruction, or outreach
- learning more about the Catalyst tools for self-maintained Web sites
- submitting a news item or revision to the Department of Communication Web site, reporting errors, or updating pertinent information
Video
Some of our events and colloquiums are available online. They may be viewed on the left side of the Department News page.
Social Media
We seek to communicate through social media channels including Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn. Join the conversation!
Academic Continuity Toolkit
UW Technology and other units on campus have compiled a toolkit of technology recommendations to help instructors prepare for a possible disruption to campus operations (for example, a pandemic or extended severe weather). The Academic Continuity Toolkit (ACT) will help you to:
- prepare in advance for a disruption,
- conduct classes during a large-scale disruption to campus operations, and
- organize your course materials and communicate with students during normal operations.
Policies
- Please allow 24 hours, M-F for updates to departmental sites.
- In most cases, we ask that instructors maintain their own course sites, but don’t hesitate to contact us for more information or one-on-one training.
- Departmental projects take precedent over the projects of individual faculty, staff, and students.
- We establish turnaround times for individual projects on a rolling, case-by-case basis.
