EDLD 5363 Web Conference December 15, 2011 Reflection

     Tonight’s conference was a little shorter for me than the last. It may be because I was so distracted by the web cam not working. It was on, but it would not come up in the class. I understand it may be because of I need flash, but it has always worked before. Because I kept messing with flash and the camera, I am afraid I missed some of the discussion. I was even kicked out of the conference once and had to log back on and wait to get it in. I guess all these things are kinks in a technology that will be ironed out as time goes on, and there are always growing pains as there is progress. 
     The conference was kind of an overview of what should already be done and what to look forward to in the future.  I did not have any real questions, but enjoyed hearing Dr. Abernathy assure us that she was there to help us if we needed her. I believe this has been my favorite class so far. It has not been high stress and it is something I wanted to learn even if it was not required. In the end, I have only been to 2 web conferences. I work until 5 and to get home and be online by 6 is very difficult for me. I did make it home yesterday to get to the conference, and then discovered it was going to be on Thursday night. I wish I would have made it to more of the conferences, and I think I will miss having these web conferences available.

Now, there have been some big changes in my work.   I am teaching graphic design, animation, digital interactive media, web technologies, advanced animation, and advanced graphic design at the high school. 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...
