Unit 9 Musings

Having had time to think about the process of actually presenting the webinar I can see areas that we as a group could improve to be more effective in the future. The toughest part of creating the webinar is coordinating group work with working professionals who have a variety of commitments both in and outside of the work place. As a teacher we may be done at 2:35pm each day with class, but I remain involved with the students supervising conditioning and weight room sessions that extends my day usually till 5pm before I leave home.
Overall, I was happy with the first attempt at presenting to a group, what a weird feeling speaking and not seeing anyone's face as you try to teach the material. Most conversing I do online is either through instant message or the F2F via formats like Skype, thus it was odd to just see the screen.
I think all groups will improve upon their original presentations and refine what they didn't like or have run as smoothly as they would have liked. Ah...the joys and pains of technology!!!
