Web Conference Reflection

This has been one of about 5 different web conferences I have experienced throughout my term here at Lamar. Due to technological difficulties, I was unable to attend and just read the chat script. That was interesting to me because I definitely had other questions after reading the chat. I found that most peoples' questions were not regarding our course but rather the entire internship/degree in general. It seems many people are confused about the vast array of requirements and where to go to meet these requirements. I was quite surprised at the cost of the ILD, being $600, this was definitely a big surprise to me. I found that others were surprised by this cost as well. Much of the conference was about resolving concerns about the LCE and other questions like this. We have received an email about where to find the LCE in blackboard and so some were confused, as I was, about where and when this needs to be done. Others were confused about the Tf20 requirements for the course and if we needed to submit to epic and tk20. There were also questions about our week 5 assignment, given that it changed at a fairly late date. However the web conferences are instrumental and are another example of things we could implement in our own teaching.
