Presenting at Conferences

I've been thinking lately that I'd like to try presenting at a conference or two next year. There are a few scheduled that I should be able to attend:
  1. Colorado TELECOOP, April 16-18, Breckenridge (proposals due January 26)
  2. Colorado Community College Conference on Composition, April 18, Greeley (proposals due January 31)
  3. Teaching with Technology Idea Exchange 2008, June 5-6, Orem, Utah (proposals due Feburary 1)

Obviously, I'll have to choose between the TELECOOP Conference and the 5Cs. Why did they have to schedule them at the same time?

Hallelujah!

Our team has finished our presentation for IT 6750. It was great working with Alex and Blake to analyze the trend of using virtual worlds, specifically Second Life, in higher education and corporate training.

Audacity and Trend Analysis

I've been learning how to use Audacity, a free audio editor and recorder. I can record an audio track, cut off the extra time at the beginning and end, and insert the file into a PowerPoint slide. I'm doing this for our trend analysis on Second Life.

I had planned to use this blog as a research journal for the project, but we ended up creating a wiki.

Presentation on Second Life and Education

I have to confess that I haven't watched the presentation yet, but I'm sure that if Laura was involved, it will be very informative.
