Peggy and I have started to review the Mac pages in the Webcasting Book. I created a screencast about how I set up for streaming in Ustream. Just realized now, I didn't show starting a skype call before streaming. I'm sure there's more that could be changed/added/deleted. Please leave your comments here for us to create a better screencast.

 

I am always looking for ways to help build communities and find ways to communicate. Especially when it comes to connecting parents and schools. So when I happened upon Webcast academy and Edtechtalk I knew that there were some good things going on in this community. I am technically literate and a have a good knowledge of how to use the Internet and related technologies. Thankfully the door was opened and I dove right into a world of screencasts, broadcasts and exciting visionary people to help me out. Despite my skills, some days I felt totally overwhelmed and challenged. I was told it would be like that.

As I set up the Parent Involvement webcast, Parents as Partners, it became very clear that the audience that the web cast would be targeting would need some hand holding.
