mikecogh (7:48:38 AM): Why do you think it is important to include synchronous tools in online courses?

teca2002pt (7:49:00 AM): or http://www.digibridge.net/teresadeca/webheads/baw11/SYNCH_AND_SWIM_baw11.ppt
jbcoops (7:49:14 AM): care to sign up?  i help teachers create virtual K-12 classrooms at Tapped In http://www.tappedin.org  ...no audio there... but... if you have a speech to text or text to speech program you can use it.
joseaokc (7:49:35 AM): That seems great Jeff
teca2002pt (7:49:54 AM): come on. let's hear you  :-)
teca2002pt (7:50:06 AM): difficult, mike
lolesova (7:50:18 AM): social presence
jbcoops (7:50:19 AM): Tapped In is a professional educators' collaborative with over 500 professional development groups, university and K-12 classrooms.  I specialize in K-12 Campus support and collaboration between classes.  Membership is free and ad free.
joseaokc (7:50:24 AM): It makes them feel more connected
mikecogh (7:50:25 AM): slide 22
amal_elqersh (7:50:49 AM): i can't hear any more what might be the problem
lolesova (7:51:33 AM): students love immediate feedback
teca2002pt (7:51:54 AM): JA, can you help amal? you were successful a while back  :-)
eannegrenoble (7:51:57 AM): @amal - there is a "mute" button .... have you checked that ?
joseaokc (7:52:12 AM): Check your audio settings Amal
eannegrenoble (7:52:49 AM): for Amal http://help.yahoo.com/kb/index?y=PROD_MSNG&page=content&id=DOC726  checking your settings
teca2002pt (7:52:53 AM): yes, juan. voice can speed things up
jbcoops (7:53:03 AM): there are quite a few excellent audio tools... i'd also recommend http://www.wiziq.com  ...which is also free and has a number of ongoing ESL classes
mikecogh (7:53:34 AM): slide24
azharyoussef (7:54:06 AM): You said that through synchronous tools, students are provided immediate feedback. What about asynchronous tools?
jbcoops (7:54:42 AM): longer, ongoing, sustained feedback
jbcoops (7:54:54 AM): Tapped In is polysynchronous
juancursosonline4742 (7:55:08 AM): I totally agree with her, as I have the possibility to study as I am far away from places where differente careers are offered, and I wouldn't like to come back to a face to face career, I have freedom to study and grow up professionally, I'm happy Internet exists!
jbcoops (7:55:08 AM): threaded Discussion boards, File sharing, Whiteboards, etc.
kuzmychlana (7:55:55 AM): Need camera to see slides ?
dimivalmi (7:56:18 AM): http://groups.yahoo.com/group/baw2011/files/SYNCH%20AND%20SWIM_baw11.pptx
mikecogh (7:56:56 AM):
Yes Larissa
jbcoops (7:57:10 AM): what i'd like to see is polysynchronous audio/textural chat.  for example... here i'm missing everything everyone says in audio.  if however there was a synchronous speech to text stream... i'd not only be able to read what was being said it would greatly facilitate coming back to a  transcript later.
lolesova (7:57:27 AM): yes voxopop
amal_elqersh (7:57:28 AM): there is a pop up  window says ai am not authorised to join the conference
teca2002pt (7:57:33 AM): i think the same, mike
jbcoops (7:57:42 AM): no audio transcript will really be listened to in the future since it requires real time listening... whereas text chat transcripts may be perused (and searched) much quicker and easier.
eannegrenoble (7:57:51 AM): I'd like to talk about my voxopop experience
juancursosonline4742 (7:57:52 AM): what do people think about virtual classrooms and Internet, many teachers  and people in Argentina think that these tools make people isolate fromthe world? I think
teca2002pt (7:58:00 AM): not usre about that, but i think i've seen longer recordings
mikecogh (7:58:22 AM): Hi Anne!
juancursosonline4742 (7:58:22 AM): yes
sueannan29 (7:58:22 AM): yes
lolesova (7:58:22 AM): yes
mikecogh (7:58:23 AM): yes
amal_elqersh (7:58:23 AM): not at all
jasminecn04 (7:58:24 AM): ya
dimivalmi (7:58:24 AM): yes
azharyoussef (7:58:26 AM): yes
teca2002pt (7:58:35 AM): larissa, i used voxopop in yakutsk
lolesova (7:58:50 AM): Teresa yes - did it work good?
jbcoops (7:58:53 AM): i'd like to argue with those people in Argentina... and by arguing with them online i'd prove them wrong... just by arguing with them online!
jbcoops (7:59:20 AM): are there still people who think that f2f is the only way to "really" connect?
teca2002pt (7:59:29 AM): it did, larissa
jbcoops (7:59:34 AM): yay manal!
mikecogh (7:59:36 AM): slide 25
joseaokc (7:59:43 AM): Finally Manal
joseaokc (7:59:54 AM): Great to see you have made it
teca2002pt (8:02:03 AM): can i say sth?
azharyoussef (8:02:33 AM): I think that we need to use both tools
amal_elqersh (8:02:55 AM): thanks jose i've really enjoyed the part i've heardand thanks buddies too for ur great help
lolesova (8:03:19 AM): agree Teresa
jbcoops (8:03:26 AM): i think a hybrid approach utilizing a wide variety of tools is called for
lolesova (8:03:36 AM): sometimes short synchronous help engage students
jbcoops (8:03:39 AM): no one thing works for all things at all times
mikecogh (8:03:42 AM): FUN = frivolous unanticiaoted nonsense
joseaokc (8:04:20 AM): Hello Maizie
jbcoops (8:04:32 AM): at Tapped In a teacher creates a classroom with 50 (or more) student accounts.  it's all text... and transcripts are sent *to the teacher* (including private chat).  there is a lot of security there, but also the possibility to collaborate with other classrooms internationally
sookjhee (8:04:33 AM): you can use group chat in facebook
teca2002pt (8:04:45 AM): well, jeff, many people don't think the social aspect is important
jbcoops (8:04:54 AM): many people are idiots
joseaokc (8:05:02 AM): That is true Teresa
jbcoops (8:05:10 AM): if you want to learn a foreign language, you need to talk to foreigners
joseaokc (8:05:15 AM): I guess it depends a lot on objectives
jbcoops (8:05:23 AM): if you want to learn english, you need to speak with people who speak english
lolesova (8:05:23 AM): agree with JA
eannegrenoble (8:05:31 AM): Is it possible to send private messages in this conference call ?
lolesova (8:05:41 AM): needs assessment needed when you think which one you will be using
jbcoops (8:05:46 AM): so what is better than having students use their primary and secondary languages with other students from around the world?
jbcoops (8:05:56 AM): social doesn't belie educational
sookjhee (8:05:59 AM): yes. twitter is realtime
jbcoops (8:06:11 AM): pick a topic (between the students and the teachers) to discuss
mfr2000pt (8:06:18 AM): to send private messaages click on a name on the right (list os participants)
jbcoops (8:06:29 AM): whether it's world cup soccer or "of mice and men" i don't care... the important thing is that the *students* care.
jbcoops (8:06:56 AM): if you want them actively engaged, then they need to have some voice in what they're talking about... i don't care if it's cosmetology or cosmology
jbcoops (8:07:36 AM): get them talking... reading/hearing/translating what their peers are talking about... then you have dialogue... discourse... who wants to argue against that?
jbcoops (8:07:49 AM): thanks azha... now all i need is someone to hire me
jbcoops (8:08:12 AM): frankly i'm sick of naysayers... it's time to move forward in the 21st Century
jbcoops (8:08:34 AM): bottom line is if you want world peace (and anyone care to argue against that?)... then you need global communication, discourse, arguments, understanding.
lolesova (8:09:23 AM): I am from Purdue - Mike and I am in Hotseat
jbcoops (8:09:32 AM): the main trouble is the only thing that happens in schools anymore (particularly in the U.S.) are things that are mandated.  tech isn't mandated and therefore vastly underutilized as a tool.  get rid of No Child Left Behind... put computers into every students' hands... things will start to rock!
teca2002pt (8:09:35 AM): good for you, larissa
mikecogh (8:10:39 AM): Purdue University - Hotseat
jbcoops (8:12:55 AM): i taught at Richmond High (of "Coach Carter" fame) during the 90s (i left the year before he got there).  have a look a look at an article i wrote:  http://snurl.com/netc1  "Building 21st Century Collaborative Learning Communities"
joseaokc (8:14:09 AM): Hi stacey, Finally
jbcoops (8:14:12 AM): yes... about a basketball coach who locked the door on his team because they weren't making grades (starring Samuel L. Jackson).
bonnyasefue98 (8:14:18 AM): yes thanks to everyones patience
joseaokc (8:14:20 AM): I am sorry. I tried so many times
jbcoops (8:14:28 AM): that was Richmond High... i taught English and ESL there for 4 years... left the year before he got there.
sookjhee (8:14:32 AM): *clap clap clap* thank you!!
lolesova (8:14:33 AM): Thank you Mike
