Week 2: Web Conference

Week 2 Web Conference was a great example of how to use web conferencing with students. I enjoy "putting a face" to the name of the other students enrolled in the class and learning about them and their goals.  Web conferences allow the professor a set time to explain specific projects and answer questions.
 This virtual opportunity helps conserve time and energy.  Web conferencing could be used within school districts, especially larger districts.  Instead of having to set up a meeting place, make transportation arrangements, and using travel time; a web conference can help these administrators conduct the meeting and take care of the business at hand.
Also, it is beneficial to listen to the questions of others.  Most of the time, I have the same questions or hadn’t even consider the questions.  The time spent learning about and experiencing web conferencing allows the students to understand the process for activities later in our professional careers.
