TechTalks Archive

The TechTalks Archive is now at https://www.syllabus.com/techtalks/

The TechTalks Archive is a series of Web casts that were produced by the Corporation for Research and Educational Networking (CREN) from 1997 through 2002. CREN was the non-profit higher education member organization that founded BITNET (the "Because It's Time"network) in 1981 and provided IT Knowledge Services and Certificate Authority services to support research and educational institutions.

The TechTalks represent CREN's pioneering spirit, as they were among the earliest audio Web casts covering technology in education. CREN's executive director Judith V. Boettcher, Ph.D., and Princeton University's IT strategist Howard Strauss hosted the TechTalks, featuring audio interviews with experts on a rich variety of IT topics from networking, to security, to course management systems.

Upon closing in 2003, CREN entrusted Syllabus with the TechTalks Archive, which will be available for free at https://www.syllabus.com/techtalks/ for years to come as a great resource for the education community. Enjoy these archives and watch for updates to their companion series, Syllabus Radio.

You can listen to the archived events (and view supplementary materials) or read the transcripts.
