Web Conference

I attempted to participate in a web conference last weekend. Unfortunately, the conference was cut short because too many people were commenting at once and the professor was not able to successfully guide the discussion. It would be like 100 people or so, in a traditional classroom setting, all talking at once while the professor was trying to talk. That would be confusing for all participants. I did learn from the experience. I learned that when participating in a web conference it is still appropriate to "listen" to the speaker before "bluring out." I was saddened that the conference had to end early. I hope to still participate in a web conference. However, this evening I tried twice to sign on and was not able to do so either time. I suppose that was because the number of students admitted to the conference was limited this week.
