WebEx Scheduling for Class

Sometimes a seemingly easy task can get complicated. The use of WebEx is new to me this spring. In the past I have used Adobe Connect but that was a while ago and I recall a much different interface than WebEx.

The entry that tripped me up was that the scheduling menu defaults to "PM" and of course we are meeting in the morning. I just missed the click to make it AM. It reminded me again that there is a learning curve to technology that is new to us and it takes some practice. I'll be demonstrating the operation of WebEx in class when we talk about distance learning.

On Thursday, June 30, we will not meet at AU or Woodstock but meet instead through WebEx. We will use it as a videoconferencing platform. I expect the WebEx conference to be up at 8:15 AM and we will start at 8:30. I expect to finish at 10:00 or so. I thought it would be valuable for all of us to experience at least one class session where we all can sit in our favorite chair or office and go to class through WebEx.

So, save that WebEx invitation so you can connect on June 30!
