Overview:
This is the final session for this course. Give me five (note picture) for
hanging in there with me! The goal for this course is for educators to understand
that desktop videoconferencing breaks down classroom walls and enables students to be
involved in meaningful, real life learning through the collection and sharing of
information. The course objectives include for participants to:
- Observe the educational value of desktop videoconferences
- Install and configure
telecommunications software
- Set up a computer with software and hardware needed for
videoconferencing
- Participate with other educators in discussion forums,
chats, and videoconferences
- Organize a videoconference event that networks
student/teacher with presenters as a class project.
Most of all, it is important that we networked as a
class and experienced first-hand the education richness of this means of communication.
I understand the workload we all carry as educators and have extended the deadline
until May 31 for class members to complete all requirements.
Assignment:
