June 4, 2012 web conference

The first thing discussed in this conference was rather you have to buy the digital cook book or not.  She said that no one has to buy this product.  She said that it is good but that it is not a required thing to purchase.

Kay also spoke about how school districts have changed since the beginning of the Lamar program in the fall of 2008.  She is saying that more and more of the schools are opening up the internet for the teachers to use in the classroom.  She said that we are the ones who have to promote using technology and the intenret in the classroom.

She then spoke about our video that is due.  She said that it can be about ourself or about our school.  She asked that we use a different open source resource than the one we used in our other classes.  She said that cooltoolsfor school gives you different links to help with this project.  She was telling about the different links on this site and that it includes links for audio and video. 

Kay spoke about her video she made.  She talked about how she is from Texas and how her career went.  She was saying that it is a good example of how we should do our video.  She was saying how she has retired twice and is now working at Lamar.  She said that we do not have to do a personal video like hers but that we can. 

She was saying that they encourage elementary schools to use free open source software.  She said that she wants us to have the experience to be able to bring this information to the school districts.  She said that we are the ones who can help get schools to use this software.
