EDLD 5363 - Web Conference Reflections

Week 1 – Tuesday, June 5, 2012
On Tuesday, June 5, 2012, I attended a web conference. I had technical difficulties at first and finally could only listen to the conference, which was acceptable to me at the time. I was able to understand the assignment a bit more clearly because of the questions from attendees and also further discussion from Dr. Abernathy. I am impressed and delighted to know that Dr. Abernathy is very willing to help her students with whatever problem that arises. I look forward to the next four weeks as they unfold. These conferences will certainly help me resolve any issue that may arise.

Week 2 – Saturday, June 16, 2012
I attended the web conference for Week 2 on Saturday, June 16, 2012. Dr. Abernathy clarified questions that were asked about this week’s assignment. I was also glad that she talked in detail about the assignment for weeks 3-5. Attending these conferences gives me the opportunity to ask questions that will help clarify any confusion or misunderstanding with the written courseware. Also, I like being able to hear and see the professor—this makes the class more personal.

Week 4 - Sunday, July 1, 2012
I viewed the web conference for Week 4. Many of the questions asked touched on my own concerns. Dr. Abernathy was very personable and answered those questions so that I clearly understood what was expected for our final project submission. I am glad that Dr. Abernathy is very willing to be available to all her students so that they can be successful. She said that she is not a “gotcha” kind of teacher, but one who will work with her students to be successful.
