EDLD 5363 - Web Conferences Reflection

I attended four different web conferences, which were very helpful because we were able to ask questions and receive assistance.  Dr. Abernathy was always very kind and offered assistance when requirements for the course were in question.  There were questions about where to post - some were confused about the difference between their Google site and their blog so she clarified those questions.  During every conference she reminded us to submit our assignments to TK20 by the end of week 5.  For the video project we worked on in week 2 she reminded us that we should include more pictures and video rather than words – the pictures and video should speak volumes – more so than the words.  She also reminded us what the time lengths should be for our videos.  Another good reminder was to stay current on our Internship hours and Action Research Plan.  She instructed us to not get behind on those.  Also, if our web conference reflections are in our Google site or blog, we must provide the links to those.  She reminded us of the ways we can communicate with our group, such as through Google Hangout, Skype, Google Docs or FreeConferenceCall.com

I enjoyed hearing the talk about ISTE in San Antonio and all the activities that were planned in the days leading up to the event.  One of the girls in our group shared her experiences at the conference and it sounded unbelievable!  I really wish I could have attended this year; however, I will try to attend sometime in the very near future.
