Information from the June 17th web conference for cohorts 4-7
 * Continue to keep up with field-based logs and reflections, but do not submit them via email anymore. You will submit them when you are enrolled in the internship capstone course.
 * Work on your eportfolio/wiki- all field-based experience logs and reflections, and course embedded reflections should be posted there as well.
 * Dr. Abernathy stressed several times to keep up with all reflections so that you don't have to write them at the end- this is also the same information from students in cohorts 1-3.
 * Use Internship Handbook 3.1
 * If you change districts or campuses over the summer, just send in a new mentor agreement.
 * Cohorts 1-10 do not have to hit all 33 ISTE indicators
 * Beginning August 24, 2010, the internship course will change to EDLD 5370
 * Course-embedded assignments are listed in the handbook appendices. Write those as you finish each course.

We are expecting you at participate in synchronous web conferences to be held on dates and times in the attached schedule. You are to attend one of the conferences designated for your beginning date, which classifies you in a cohort group. Prepare for the conferences now.A headset with microphone and a web camera are preferred equipment and will allow each one of you to talk and be heard and seen by other participants. I will open the meeting room 15 minutes prior to the beginning of the conference. You do not need additional software. Use the following link to reach the meeting room: @http://lamar.na4.acrobat.com/r68594276/ Enter the room as a âguest.â Do not enter your Lamar ID and password, but key your first name and last name into the dialogue boxes you are given. This identification allows us to know who attended and on what date.Once you gain acceptance into the meeting room, go to the left menu item, âMeeting/Manage my settings,â to set up your audio and your camera.Please know that we will limit each session to 20 people; therefore, in larger cohorts you have several opportunities to join a conference at different times. You should always use the chat function. Other suggestions:
 * You turn on your web camera by double clicking on the video icon after you are online and in the classroom.

If you have trouble with your headset using Vista, Dr. Mason, who teaches Teaching with Technology, says her experience is to use a two-prong headset rather than an USB headset for best audio. USB is fine if you are using XP. I use both and have Vista. Everyone may not make their cameras and headsets work especially if you have not conferenced with us in the past. Therefore, I ask you to key your questions into the Chat window and I will produce a question and answer document for all. Chat is always available inside of Adobe Connect Pro. I will save the Chat session and post it so all can read later.

This conference will be somewhat different than our conferences of the past. The agenda follows: Web Conferences for All Students in Educational Technology Leadership Masterâs Program Information for EDLD 5388 Internship â Listed on Your Degree Plan as EDLD 5397
