If so the Libraries Digital Scholarship Commons (DSC) offers a wide range of modular introductory hands-on digital skills workshops that professors and instructors can incorporate into their classes, including video editing, infographic design, podcasting, website creation, Excel skills, and more (see the complete list of\u00a0<a href=\"#24-workshops\"> workshops below<\/a>).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;color: #000000\">DSC experts can also customize their digital skills workshops and assist you to <a href=\"#workshop-integration\">integrate them into your syllabus<\/a> and optimize the timing of instruction.
