Web Conferencing Report

I have completed 7 courses of my graduate work through Lamar University. I have been able to attend many webinars or web conferences with my classes. These conferences allow me and other students to listen and participate in discussions about the topic of study. It has also allowed me to get clarification or in depth explanantion about current or future assignments. I attended a web conference last night that gave me a great opportunity to hear valuable thoughts from the course professor. I think that web conferencing and skyping are good inexpensive ways to give and receive current information with peers or experts in the field. I can see that professional development opportunities will be broadened in the future with this capability and I can see that using it to collaborate with other classrooms or schools will have even a greater benefit to students of all ages and grades. As a future leader, it is important to model and utilize this technology with stakeholders.
