  Lou Zweier:yes it does
  Lou Zweier:I've found that very useful too
  John Munro:no mike sorry
  Sally Gilbert, TLT Group:Virgin Islands!
  John Munro:yes, we don't usually wine, we rum.... :-)
  Lou Zweier:Just FYI - I will need to leave the session today at 11:50
  John Munro:make a module of earlybird "session" for asynch access/info
  Sally Gilbert, TLT Group:good idea John
  Eric Werth:I really like the afterthoughts segment.
  Sally Gilbert, TLT Group:thanks
  Lou Zweier:meant for many years
  John Munro:it's been continually refining... what doesn't work, doesn't survive/continue
  Sally Gilbert, TLT Group:they also tend to depart quickly when its memorial day weekend!
  John Munro:maybe a beforethoughs session (separate day? but not too far before)
  John Munro:thoughts
  Maida Tilchen:I thought the Enders Game ones were the most engaging for me.
  Nancy Calsolaro Smulsky:Rotate day of week for them sessions. Anything but Mondays might help.
  Nancy Calsolaro Smulsky:I agree, every session is not right for every one every time
  John Munro:agree re: Mondays, but FriLive is nice to count on.
  Steve Gilbert, TLT Group:Lou - help people enter with well-matched expectations for session
  Sally Gilbert, TLT Group:We would really truly welcome recommendations for sessions and presenters.  Yourself included.
  Lou Zweier:very useful tidbits
  George Guba:ideas
  Sally Gilbert, TLT Group:GAIN:  more volunteers
  Charles Ansorge, University of Nebraska, Lincoln:Keeping up with technology relataed to teaching and learning.
  John Munro:perspectives and ideas from valued/vetted  virtual colleagues
  Nancy Calsolaro Smulsky:Best practices; new resources, liked ender's game too; tips on engaging the seasoned online educator, new & evolving technology
  Eric Werth:I like the low threshold applications portion.  I would like more of these as they are great tidbits to look into.
  Charles Ansorge, University of Nebraska, Lincoln:Learning about best practices related to technology and teaching.
  Nancy Calsolaro Smulsky:Case study
  Charles Ansorge, University of Nebraska, Lincoln:There's an app for that session,.
  Lou Zweier:I don't have anything specific here
  Charles Ansorge, University of Nebraska, Lincoln:Use of iPad or similar devices in teaching.
  Nancy Calsolaro Smulsky:Design, implementation
  Eric Werth:I would also like more about how different technologies can be integrated into traditional classes to improve student engagement and learning.
  Charles Ansorge, University of Nebraska, Lincoln:Connectrions with friends.
  Sally Gilbert, TLT Group:CHERISH:  friendly open approach
  Maida Tilchen:You're very welcomnig.
  Alicemac:The 'Live' part!
  Charles Ansorge, University of Nebraska, Lincoln:Hearing your voice each week.
  Nancy Calsolaro Smulsky:You have great guest speakers
  Lou Zweier:Interactions among participants
  Charles Ansorge, University of Nebraska, Lincoln:Listening to your ideas related to teaching and learning.
  John Munro:'tone' - gentle, welcoming, considerate and considering
  Sally Gilbert, TLT Group:CHERISH:  variety of topics/presenters
  Charles Ansorge, University of Nebraska, Lincoln:You are our resident guru.
  John Munro:somehow it's harder to 'listen' when talking vs reading when typing
  Nancy Calsolaro Smulsky:I like the mic option.
  Charles Ansorge, University of Nebraska, Lincoln:One issue is related to the echo feedback that often occurs when others speak.
  Eric Werth:I always have a mic on but normally it is faster for me to just type in the chat windo.
  Charles Ansorge, University of Nebraska, Lincoln:Some individuals have better mics than others.
  Nancy Calsolaro Smulsky:Not me, I rather speak!
  Sally Gilbert, TLT Group:Typing doesn't have to be "called on"
  Steve Gilbert, TLT Group:Lou - confirms our experience with infrequency of partricipants using mics
  Charles Ansorge, University of Nebraska, Lincoln:Mics on laptops do not work well for voice for sessions like this.
  Steve Gilbert, TLT Group:Lou - need better mechanisms for queing for taking turns
  John Munro:typing seems less intrusive, but still allows statements to be made
  Nancy Calsolaro Smulsky:I use my tablet with headset pretty often, works great!
  Eric Werth:Also, as a Presenter now I can turn on my mic as needed but if I were just a particopant I would have to ask and wait for permissions to be granted.
  Steve Gilbert, TLT Group:Sally suggested something like additional roles - designated vocalizers;  model participnats
  Charles Ansorge, University of Nebraska, Lincoln:The voice converesation is different from a telephone conveersation.
  Alicemac:two things: I need to think through what I gave ti say and the time is short, and secondly, it is being recorded.
  John Munro:plants?
  Lou Zweier:I think so too
  Lou Zweier:another advantage of chat is that everyone can speak at once.  So a lot more can get said in some ways.
  John Munro:parallel multitasking
  Lou Zweier:I can see that.  But I can type so much less than I can type in the same amount of time.
  Charles Ansorge, University of Nebraska, Lincoln:The headset that Steve mentions is excellent..
  Sally Gilbert, TLT Group:Headset Logitech USB H530  http://amzn.to/Q4y4a5  (Order this way and we get a little cut.)
  Charles Ansorge, University of Nebraska, Lincoln:The "APP" session.
  Nancy Calsolaro Smulsky:Yes, the app session was great!
  Sally Gilbert, TLT Group:The copyright series
  Lou Zweier:I might be able to do that.
  Nancy Calsolaro Smulsky:Yes, I would be interested too
  John Munro:maybe a topic-based blog structure?
  Charles Ansorge, University of Nebraska, Lincoln:We should have someone on the lookout for the latest apps that are available related to teaching and learning and share these.
  Lou Zweier:ok
  Eric Werth:Do you use the same Connect meeting room for each session?  If so maybe we could have a persistent chat window where we could write ideas that we have found useful.
  John Munro:is there a recording of audio -- often implies in text
  Lou Zweier:great question
  Nancy Calsolaro Smulsky:Community of inquiry series might be of value. Lots of chatter at the colleges where I do adjunct work
  Eric Werth:I liked the session on hybrid courses and would like to see more on this!
  Lou Zweier:those all sound very good.
  Maida Tilchen:open education resources
  Charles Ansorge, University of Nebraska, Lincoln:Use of tablets to support teaching and learning.

  Nancy Calsolaro Smulsky:COI : socila presence, cognitive presence, teaching presence,
  Lou Zweier:project-based learning
  Nancy Calsolaro Smulsky:social
  Eric Werth:Maybe use of all of the Google apps that are available?
  Maida Tilchen:A big issue for our faculty is upgrades such as for the LMS that originate with the vendor.  No one wants to relearn.
  John Munro:more than 60% of my students have/bring smartphones/tablets to class -- take photos of chalkboard, access google docs etc
  Lou Zweier:yes, as opposed to the institution haveing to provide devices
  Steve Gilbert, TLT Group:RELEARNING
  Charles Ansorge, University of Nebraska, Lincoln:Technology resources used in assessment of students.
  Nancy Calsolaro Smulsky:I just signed-up for a MOOC through Google: Power Searching at Google Starts on 9/24
  Kyle Songer:People have a tough time making the transition from designing learning the way they were taught (rote memorization ) to designing active learning.
  Charles Ansorge, University of Nebraska, Lincoln:I'd like to have Steven Bell back to talk about ways he uses to "keep up."  He's an engaging speaker.
  Charles Ansorge, University of Nebraska, Lincoln:It would be good to have Phil Long back some time.
  Lou Zweier:No, nothing more.  It's been a good session
  John Munro:after a case/courseactivity etc is presented, get responses from students who used it

  John Munro:although 'spontaneous' sessions happen too
  Charles Ansorge, University of Nebraska, Lincoln:Have you ever done this before?  If yes, was it successful.
  Sally Gilbert, TLT Group:proposals for fridaylive or workshops? or both?
  Charles Ansorge, University of Nebraska, Lincoln:If not done before I think it is worth doing.  Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
  Nancy Calsolaro Smulsky:It would be a nice avenue for folks who did not get into conferences but have great things to offer
  Sally Gilbert, TLT Group:good thopught
  John Munro:google forms help focus and reduce 'overhead'
  Nancy Calsolaro Smulsky:Distribute through member schools

  John Munro:bye all
  Sally Gilbert, TLT Group:CU soon John!
  Sally Gilbert, TLT Group:We're in extermission
  Maida Tilchen:I am signed up for four MOOC courses this fall. I don't know if I'll do all of them all the way, but I would like to compare experiences with others on Friday Live, and hope that will happen. Im taking them in part for the experience, not just the content.

  Steve Gilbert, TLT Group:Kyle - online physics session using simulations....  [remote labs too?]  Enders Game
