EDLD 5363 ET 8037 Week 2 Web Conference - November 22, 2011

Web Conference – November 22, 2011, Tuesday night

Tonight’s web conference seemed to go off much smoother than conferences in the past. It may be that Dr. Abernathy was able to keep the number of attendees down to a smaller amount, allowing better connections.  Whatever the reason, the conference was enjoyable and informative – not frustrating.
I was also able to hear Dr. Abernathy a large percent of the time, and only had her fade out a few time. I think because the holidays are so close, everyone was excited and wishing each other Happy Thanksgiving! One question I had, I believe was asked, was if we need to post our edited video. I believe the answer was, “no, it is only practice”.  I am a little confused because I think in week 5 we are supposed to have it posted in our WIKI. I will continue to try to get this question answered.
I finally got the nerve to go to the web conference and use the webcam. I do not know why I hate cameras, but I do. Once I used it, it was liberating, and I am no longer intimidated. I also enjoy seeing faces to go with names. I am beginning to recognize several of my classmates, and it makes the class more enjoyable.

I took off working on my Lamar master program for six months so I could focus on the new job, and learn all the new Adobe software programs: Flash, Illustrator, Photoshop, and Dreamweaver.   Now that I am back, I am trying to work out how to continue working on my Action Research and Internship plan. I am not sure how to continue from here. It would be so much more useful to me to complete my Internship and Action Research at my new school, but I do not know if it would be better to just continue completing my work at Brazosport. These last five weeks I have not worked on either project. I have ha...
