November 22, 2011 Web Conference Reflection

Today's conference centered around week two's assignment.  There was a lot of confusion about the podcast and whether it should include video as well as audio.  Dr. Abernathy clarified for us that it did not have to include video, but it could if we desired.  There was also a lot of confusion on how long the podcast should be.  Some students thought it was supposed to be one minute, others thought two minutes. I have not used Audacity before, so I was interested to learn about LAME, and that it should only need to be downloaded once.  Some students found groups to join during the web conference.  Andres Chavez and I have been helping each other since the first course, so we decided to continue working together.  He met two more ladies during a web conference, and the four of us are going to work together on our project.
