Day 1 Region 4 New York

9:00 am Roll Call  Hello Texas, Michigan, Missouri

 We were welcomed and took a tour of Moogle-our online environment for the week.  We will chat, we will reflect, and we will post as we collaborate on a project.

 We experienced the fun of presenting and sharing with Monster Exchange and Books Across America.

We shared what we learned about videoconferencing and some good ideas for an exchange.

Great lunch!

We learned about videoconferencing from Paul Hieronymous and IVDL Jeopardy.  It was time to get competitive! New York answered a 500 point question correctly.  Yes!!!!

 We enjoyed watching video clips and hearing about some great distance learning content providers i.e. Cleveland Zoo, Nasa Glenn.

Local Time Andrea discussed videoconferencing set-up and connectivity ( IP and ISDN).

Break Out Groups-Some of us chatted and some of us videoconferenced while we explored ideas and began planning for our 123…VC CLASS PROJECT. We used the project template as we learned about one another and shared ideas.

 It was a full day with opportunities to interact, collaborate, and share.

Looking forward to Day 2!!!!
