Web Conference #2 (required)

Earlier this week I had the opportunity of taking part in my first official web conference. Things started off well, however there seemed to be a lot of technical difficulties. Since the audio was going in and out, I could only hear the professor speak about every 20 words or so. As a back up plan, there was a chat box on the right hand side of the screen that students were able to communicate through. I guess having 40 - 50 students in on video conference would place a small burden on my internet connection. We did discuss things such as the GRE requirements and something called the TK20. Although I was a bit hesitant at first, I honestly felt that I was on the "right track" after the video conference. We did also talk about seeking out a mentor from our campus who would help us with our internship as well as finding out information about our internship.
