EDLD 5352 Web Conference 2 Reflection

Saturday, July 28, 2012

I am hardly awake at 9 am on a Saturday, but I am glad I was this time around.  This web conference gave me several pieces of important information, not of the least of which was being thankful I took ILD at Lamar with Dr. Jenkins versus online.  According to one participant, the amount of coursework was equal to about three of these courses. I also got clarification about who to contact regarding certification now that I have ILD and, as far as I can tell, LCE completed.  These two pieces of information alone were worth the cost of admission.  For this week's coursework, Dr. Abernathy explained exactly what was expected to be turned in for this week's assignment.  Fortunately, my team was already ahead of the curve as we had already had our first team meeting and were on the same page regarding what web 2.0 tools we were each going to review in Week 3.  As the instructions are not always clear, the web conference was helpful in ensuring that I am doing what is expected.  I and another teammate were also able to send an update based on the conference to the other team members to answer questions brought up during our team web meeting earlier in the week.
