Today I participated in my first web conference. I didn't know what to think at first. I thought maybe it was like Skype, but the group told me it compared more to messenger, or IM, as the majority of us were typing in lieu of video and audio participation.
What a great way to conference with a group who are spread out across the country. In a large district with multiple administrators, it is an easy way to host a meeting. In a smaller district (where staff needs to stay on campus more often) it is also a great substitute for traditional meetings.
When an important staff member is on extended leave, it is a solution to bring them to required meetings.
I enjoyed it, and see the value it will have in the future of education.
