During the last week and a half I have attended four web conferences. The learning experience for all participants was both exciting and productive. As a learning community, we muddled through the various challenges of determining who would speak when, how to make the webcams work, and how to stop the hum and feedback from our headphones and microphones.
I was amazed at the amount of information that was passed along during those conferences. We discussed "plurk", "skype", and "twitter" along with a myriad of webconferencing sites, wikis, blogs, and programs that we can use for our projects. Online learning is great, but it still doesn't take the place of "live" interaction. There are so many students with so much wonderful information to share! I really enjoyed the conferencing and hope that it will continue throughout our coursework.
