Virtual High School Meanderings: Another Virtual Schooling CIDER Session

Well first of all, thanks to those who attended my own CIDER session a couple of Fridays ago. You can access the archived recording at:

Now that I have that out of the way, I'd like to make mention of another virtual school session that CIDER has scheduled.

Research Results from BC’s Connected Learner’s Technology Projects
Institution: BCEd Online
Date and time: Nov 16, 2007 11:00 AM

What factors help to create effective online learning environments in K-12? In this session, Dr. Elizabeth Childs and Lara Jongedijk will report on the final data from nine provincial Connected Learner’s Technology Grant Projects that ran across 18 months and involved 14 school districts in British Columbia. The technologies used in the projects included: webcasting, web-conferencing, synchronous courses using Elluminate Live, use of Smartboards, online tutoring and data archiving. Lessons learned will be discussed and recommendations for making informed decisions when planning and implementing similar technology projects will be shared.

I'll post a reminder about it as the time gets closer, but I wanted to inform you now so you could get it on your calendars.
