This week marked the first time I have participated in an online course. I was a little intimidated going into it, but after we began, I realized I was actually pretty comfortable with it all.
The reason for this...Curricular Planning.
Having experienced Moodle, Elluminate Live, and of course blogging last semester with Dr. S. in Curricular Planning, I discovered this online class wouldn't be nearly as bad as I had thought.
The class met as whole group on Thursday evening. It seemed to go well, except there were a few microphone issues.
Prior to this meeting, however, I had been meeting online with my group, the Tech Quad.
We met three nights this first week through G-Talk and Google Docs. This was the first time I had ever worked with a group collaboratively using either tools.
It is so easy to use and you can edit power points and other documents together. It was also helpful when someone in the group didn't understand how to do something, you could just connect through a web cam and actually tell them how to do it, rather than just type it in and hope they understand.
