Member-Only Community Overview
What are WCET Online Communities?
MIX is WCET’s online community platform and email discussions where members* can ask questions of thousands of higher education peers, stay updated on digital learning breaking news, participate in member-only events and experiences, and more. MIX provides members the opportunity to…
- ask and answer questions to and from peers,
- stay up to date on digital learning in higher education,
- participate in the WCET community,
- review archives on community building opportunities, and,
- explore options for finding and using the archives of our wcetDISCUSS and wcetNEWS email lists,
- access member-only resources on timely topics.
*Most MIX communities are reserved for WCET or SAN members. Some communities are reserved for working groups, event attendees, and other invitation-only groups.
