Sychronized Web Conference #4

The web conferences just keep getting better and better. When you finally get to see faces and connect names you have been chatting with, it makes you feel like you have come home for the holidays.

The information you attain if very valuable as you listen to others questions that help you clarify assignments, activities, and procedures. Listening to the professor in a live situation makes the class seem more personable.

My classmates have become a mini family. We care for each other and want each to do our very best. We watch out for each other and help one another through those very busy times in our lives. I can't imagine completing the courses without them.

A suggestion on doubling up on some classes was made, and we immediately said, we want to graduate together. So if most wish to double up, even though it will be trying I am sure we will all double up.

I, personally enjoy the conferences. I seem to be in a car somewhere in the world when the conferences are going on. Without the use and aide of technology, I would not be able to participate in many activities that I have been a part of. While at Disney this summer I along with 3 other group members collaborated and created a movie for our final project. I have conferenced traveling along I-10 from Lousianna to Florida. And conferenced outside of Disney World while looking for a parking space. The two latest conferences were held while my family attended Wings over Houston (airplane show) and competed in the First Lego League (Jr. Robotics Competition). Our team placed 2nd in the Lego competition and will compete in the finals in Pearland in December.

I can't imagine experiencing and sharing my experiences in a static classroom where you are confined by four walls.
