[3] A conference-like EdTechTalk. The show started out with us talking about upcoming conferences- a couple we'll be speaking at and webcasting from and a couple that folks will be tuning in to. We were visited by John Hibbs [4], who talked to us about Global Learn Day 10 [5] and Wes Fryer [6] who told us about the K12 Online Conference [3].
Are you ready for some conferencing?

10/1/06 19:43:38 Sharon_Peters_(eebee1): JenW was the one who passed along your blog
10/1/06 19:44:29 JenniferW: soooo cool
10/1/06 19:47:00 Sharon_Peters_(eebee1): That was going to be my question - how can I get my colleagues on board with this?
10/1/06 19:47:31 Sharon_Peters_(eebee1): apart from posting it as an email to them?
10/1/06 19:47:33 dave: i know my students (MEd) in the winter we're very resistant to things like this
10/1/06 19:48:20 dave: there's a certain feeling among many teachers that they are only going to do what they have to
10/1/06 19:48:23 dave: overworked
10/1/06 19:48:23 Cathy: I am hoping this will give me another avenue for staff development
10/1/06 19:48:35 dave: over-managed
10/1/06 19:48:35 Sharon_Peters_(eebee1): we have to take mandatory tech training at our school - maybe we can make this an option and provide release time....??
10/1/06 19:48:36 JenniferW: but since a lot is pre-recorded -- it isn't limited to just the 2 weekends -- right??
10/1/06 19:48:53 JenniferW: there will be an archive???
10/1/06 19:49:39 dave: yes
10/1/06 19:49:46 dave: there will be an archive
10/1/06 19:49:57 JenniferW: so, it is not limited to its potential

10/1/06 20:10:34 wesleyfryer: skype is still cheap
10/1/06 20:10:37 Sharon_Peters_(eebee1): I guess it hopped out one of those windows
10/1/06 20:10:41 wesleyfryer: they should host a skypecast instead
10/1/06 20:10:46 JenniferW: how many people can come into a skypecast at one time??
10/1/06 20:10:50 JenniferW: is there a limit??

10/1/06 20:11:21 dave: we've never talked to anyone who ever made it that far
10/1/06 20:11:31 dave: after two people i tend to fall over
10/1/06 20:11:36 Sharon_Peters_(eebee1): time to set a record!
10/1/06 20:11:40 dave: and they can't be very heavy
10/1/06 20:11:43 wesleyfryer: i might be able to help
10/1/06 20:11:48 JenniferW: LOL -- I am sure that is true
10/1/06 20:11:55 wesleyfryer: we bridged in landlines to the skypecast we did in july
10/1/06 20:12:06 JenniferW: now WES is your best friend!!!! :)
10/1/06 20:12:09 Sharon_Peters_(eebee1): good idea - what a great solution
10/1/06 20:12:14 wesleyfryer: I can start a skypecast and then dial in directly
10/1/06 20:12:40 JenniferW: now THIS is collaboration!!!
10/1/06 20:12:40 DougSymington: and I could do another for another 5 participants
10/1/06 20:13:46 lee: Hi John
10/1/06 20:15:10 JenniferW: could they use vyew???
10/1/06 20:15:16 JenniferW: there is a dial in option
10/1/06 20:15:24 wesleyfryer: i don't think vyew supports the audio
10/1/06 20:15:39 DougSymington: long distance charges apply in vyew
10/1/06 20:15:45 JenniferW: i havne't tried it -- but there is a dial in option

10/1/06 20:27:44 wesleyfryer: VOIP is an interesting topic to address for sure
10/1/06 20:28:12 wesleyfryer: my perception is that some companies who have been traditionally viewed as "phone companies" are reinventing themselves as data services companies
10/1/06 20:29:14 lee: ahhh yes
10/1/06 20:36:02 JenniferW: thanks for the chat -- gotta run
