Class Listserv and Chat

Most agencies and programs today use technology to aid communications.  Part of the experience of this class is to learn to use technology to foster communication.  Two technology tools are provided, a mailing list (listserv) and a chat room.

1. A mailing list is a Web based tool that  works like a newsletter subscription.  Users send an email to the mailing list software, called listserv on the UTA network.  All subscribers automatically receive all emails sent to the list.  The name of the mailing list for this class is called sswds. 
2. To subscribe to the class mailing list, send an email to listserv@listserv.uta.edu and type subscribe sswds yourfirstname yourlastname in the body of the message.  For advice on participating in a mailing list, view the netiquette.pdf file. 
3. To unsubscribe from the sswds mailing list, send an email to listserv@listserv.uta.edu with the word signoff in the body of the message.  
4. To send a message to all students who subscribe to the list, send email to sswds@listserv.uta.edu
