Welcome!
I'm late, I'm late, for a very important date: no time to say 'hello,' 'goodbye,' I'm late, I'm late, I'm late . . . Are you like me? I didn't know the conference is linked to My Organizations in BB: just in case, point your browser to http://learn.vccs.edu Sign in and see the Virtual Conference 2009 link to the right of your BB screen.
Have you created your home page? Our Conference Developers, Marian and Joyce, publish announcements each day: please check these out to be directed to the day's activities.
Now, to take up my reporting duties. . .
Beth Gray-Robertson (Director of distance learning at Halifax Community College in Weldon, North Carolina) gives us a rousing and common-sense introduction: KEY POINTS: if you don't enjoy distance deliveries--don't do it! But if you want to give it a try, 'being organized' is key. If you commit, you will LEARN by DOING.
Beth's is sound advice--and we will hear more of her (energetic) ideas on Friday, April 24th a 9:00 a.m.: (Bricks & Mortar) Summit.
A question to blog followers: how did you find your way to distance deliveries? Did you 'ease on down a path,' get unceremoniously dumped into the road. . ? Tell a story--if you will, then I'll tell mine.
Don't forget to check into the Blackboard Virtual Conference and post your home page and a short introduction in the discussion forum.
