you answered "other" in the previous question about time spent, please describe.

- for example w/o this conf. I didn't know about Safari
U or Wimba.
- comment: sometimes it doesn't work and takes too much
time to correct. I would like the media center at Cypress to be able
to tape off CNN. reason: Cypress some classrooms don't have a computer
cart.

| 11. What
problems or limitations, if any, have you encountered with these current
practices? |
- Coordinating web pages, BB, streaming video.
- want seamless integration of technologies (ex. Blackboard
and Wimba) to minimize student stress over mastering technology and
maximize focus on content and learning
- Limited flexibility. High Duplication cost.
- When new versions of apps come out. apps are implemented
but updates/changes not discussed-
- Offsite limitations-especially availability of equipment.
- consistent discussion board participation
- We need to have a computer cart in each classroom.
Going to the library to pick up a cart takes up time in between classes
and that is time of use for students who come in early and enjoy hearing
music, political war songs other types of social commentary songs.

| Comments,
suggestions, ideas, or other feedback. |
- Thank you
- Organized, great lunch, valuable information
- Thanks but would prefer more sessions oriented toward
teaching and learning with technology than features of a specific technology
- Good variety of topics to choose from-Enjoyed the
day-
- Good food, good presentations, good folks
- Great useable info have
- add'l online topics avail for use online for training
for instructors who are unable to go to these seminars due to schedule
and work conflicts
- I enjoyed the digital sessions and the progression
(from session to session) from simple or more basic concepts to more
complex concepts and techniques.
- Thanks for the help-Perhaps a smaller "symposium each
semester would be helpful to give more opportunities to attend
- Provide drinks and snacks all day.
