Web Conference #1 (optional) 11/18/2010

         My very first web conference, wow; I was very nervous and apprehensive. I managed to set-up my microphone and headset, correctly. I have to say, I was very overwhelmed; by all of the information, I had to process in a short period of time. I was second guessing myself, on every assignment and task. Once, I was in the web conference; my nerves started to settle down. I still wasn’t sure, what, I was supposed to do. The web conference helped me, clarify a few assignments; I wasn’t sure how to do. Dr. Abshire was very patient and understanding; of the nerves, that we all seemed to have. I came away from the web conference reassured. When in doubt,  in a regular, face-to-face classroom; I could pick up on physical cues and ask questions in-person, if I’m not sure. Online learning definitely has its challenges. I am learning to work around them. Web conferences are definitely worth the time and effort.
