5363 web conference

          I have tried to attend at least one web conference per class. When I first started back this year, I wanted to participate as much as possible. I felt so excited to finally be learning about educational technology! When I attended my first web conference, I almost had a panic attack. First of all, conferences are usually held at the end of the week. I like to work steadily throughout the week; I am not a last minute worker. Instead of feeling reassured I was correctly completing my assignments, I felt more confused than ever. Directions were changed from the assignment. When questions are asked, the answers often felt cryptic or made up.  I often log of feeling like I have to redo everything I have worked on. Unless I must attend, I have learned to stay away from the web conferences. It save me so much anxiety.
