Web Conference

Date: Saturday, March 12
Time: 11:30 a.m.

I love the web conference; however, as our professor stated, it gets too chaotic with a large number of people. It's hard to follow when too many people are posting questions, replies, etc. I found that first typing the name of the person to whom I was responding reduced some of the confusion. In addition, I would not use this format with more than one class at a time--25 to 30 students would be the limit. It is a great format that allows for immediate responses and discussion, but the timeline has to be set in stone from the very beginning and differentiated in order to allow participants to make plans to attend. All in all I liked it, but like most participants, would like it more on a smaller, more manageable scale.
