Had it notbeen for Lamar’s online M.Ed. in Educational
Technology leadership, I’m not sure I would have had
this experience. Especially the experience of web
conferences, that is not utilized in an elementary setting.
I have always envisioned and seen web conferences
in the movies or in the corporate world. It’s amazing to
be able to meet and collaborate with others all over the
world and in our setting all over the
Distance Education at first seemed kind of lonely, yet
The web conferences allow for the socialization
that is missing with online classes. Our web conferences
are held to answer any questions on assignments. Yet,
I never seem to know what questions to ask until
someone asks.
The only negative about our web conferences, are the
Technical difficulties and schedule times. In regards to
technical difficulties, our audio never seems to work and
we end up typing out questions and responses. If typing
we end up typing out questions and responses. If typing
answers and/or questions during a web conference is
the only way to communicate, I would rather use
the discussion board. To provide flexibility with time,
two conferences are offered each week. But it never fails,
when I plan on attending some meeting pops up or family
life takes precedence.

I do like the web conferences and would like that only
one conference be mandatory. With the option of
attending web conferences when the student deem
necessary.
