The web conference that was held on July 20, 2010 was to address the requirements for internship in an introductory format for the Instructional Technology Leadership Program. This was the first web conference that I had ever attended. I had difficulty getting into the site. When I logged on, it stated that the meeting had not started yet, and to please wait. It continued to say this each time that I tried to access the conference. I was finally able to access the site. Participating in the conference was not difficult. Text chat was easy to use, and my web cam was working. The biggest difficulty was in being able to hear the conversations going on. The volume was going in and out. I did like that I could get answers immediately and carry on a conversation if needed. I did learn how to participate in a web conference, but I do need to practice and participate more often to become more adept and comfortable in this format.
The topic for this web conference was the requirements for internship. Site mentors and application for the internship program were discussed. The due date for these documents was given. We discussed the Internship handbook, what was incorporated in this, and where to find it. All the documents for the internship program are listed in the resourcs section of the class. She talked about the indicators and standards that would be addressed by the activities and how to document these activities. This conference provided a basic overview of the requirements for internship.
