Online Video Conference

On Thursday June 3rd I attended the online videoconference for EDLD 5306. It was the first experience I have had with online collaboration for a college class. I was surprised at the ease of using the software. It was nice being able to see those I will be working with and also receiving answers to some of the questions I had about the course, but I felt a little awkward talking to people I don’t know well. I do think this is a very interesting way to bounce ideas off of others that are in the same situation as myself. I did have a few technical problems with my sound but it did not hinder my ability to gain information from the conference. Overall I feel like the videoconference helped temper some of my fears associated with the class work and requirements forthcoming. I look forward to more interaction with others from my cohort group in the future.
