We’ve been working hard today (ok, hold down the laughter). But seriously, we had a great general session from 9 to 10. A lot of introductions, but I won’t bore you with over 60 names I’ve now commmitted to memory just in case someone decides to build an assessment quiz in DE Streaming Quiz Builder!
I sat through the bloggers session with Steve Dembo from 10 to 12. Great stuff coming to the blogs, at least on the dashboard side, as we move to the newest version of WordPress. Learned to do a few things I didn’t know I could do, so I might be blogging a bit more soon on the TN DEN blog in order to learn them all.
Lunch was awesome as usual. Great sandwiches, salads, and chips from the Whole Foods grocery store across the street from our hotel. I am so full I may not need dinner. Of course, need has nothing to do with it when the food is actually put on the table.
This afternoon I am attending 2 of the 3 sessions available. I learned a lot from Steve Dembo (again) related to Media Share. It has sort of been on the back burner of my to-do list for a while. I am looking forward to uploading resources for the teachers at my school. You can also embed videos, presentations, and more so that people who look at the asset can actually see what it is before downloading it. As we start to use Media Share more, look for updates on the TN DEN blog.
Right now I am sitting in a session on Wufoo. Wufoo is a great site for creating online forms. Lots of cute bells and whistles. Discovery provides this for the LCs as a courtesy for our use. However, I have to say I am very comfortable using Google Docs to do the same thing, so I don’t think I’ll be getting on this bandwagon anytime soon.
Since Teryl is actually helping to present the session on Google Docs (and since we use these with our LC already), I am taking my car to a local dealer to get the air conditioning fixed. I hope to be back before the unveiling of a new sneak peek in DE Streaming. Then, tonight it is dinner and fun times.
Learning a lot!
Hello Tim,
I hope you are doing well even though I am not there to stalk, I mean support, you! Sorry about the a/c. Hope it didn’t cop out on the drive to SS. Tell all hello and that I miss them and the great stuff I know they will share.
Susan
