Adobe Spark Workshop – Let’s Get Creative!

As of August 2017, the University of Miami became Florida’s first Adobe Creative Campus. UM now provides full, free access to Adobe Creative Cloud for all UM faculty, students, and staff. To kick off this exciting new partnership with Adobe, the University of Miami Libraries will be hosting two workshop sessions on December 7th to learn from Patrick Koster, Adobe Senior Customer Success Manager, and Ben Forta, Adobe Senior Director for Education Initiatives.

The sessions will start with Patrick Koster introducing the desktop and mobile applications, web services, and learning resources that are included within Adobe Creative Cloud. Next, Ben Forta will guide attendees through a hands-on session where faculty and staff have the opportunity to transform their ideas into visually stunning stories using Adobe Spark – the easiest and quickest way to get started in creating impactful graphics, web pages, and video stories! To conclude the workshop, all attendees are invited to take part in an open discussion about how these projects could pave the way to enhance teaching and learning.
