I am very interested in what you will be doing with Web Streaming. Where is the strong instructional tie-in with this one? I know that an authentic audience is important, but when does the audience become more than just a motivator for quality and is actually helping to enrich the learning of the students?
I learned SO much yesterday that I had a hard time slowing myself down to share it with others last night! Today I started my class with a little iTunes Radio…and we had fun listening to international songs and guessing where it was from! What a fun way to start a Friday! Thanks Bret and crew for an awesome training!
Jeremiah, I think it’s when we design the experience to incorporate the audience, rather than simply using it as a “21st Century” refrigerator for displaying student work. Designing the experience as a two-way interaction that allows both ends to come away with learning is ideal.
Early promotion of an interaction plays a role here giving participants (on both sides) to understand the expectations and how the interaction is planned. Of course, these ultimately do not always go according to plan, but this should be taken into consideration.
I’ve also learned that careful moderation of the visiting end is necessary and needs to be the responsibility of someone not in a lead role, but who understands the goals/outcomes of such an experience.
