Amen for the 20 minute limit. It's been great to be able to watch multiple presentations in an hour. Alex Ragones last blog post..Disrupting Class –

I am unsure if I am at a different place in my life — or K12OC is at a different place — but I would have to agree with Cathy — this is my favorite K12 so far.

In the past I have watched 5 of both 2006/2007 sessions. TOTAL.

So far, I have watched ALL of 2008 with the exception of 2. I participated in the Live Chats (both times) and look forward to this week, the LIVE chat as well, and also When Night Falls.

I am unsure if it is the length or the content — but it has been just great so far and I look forward to even more this week.

Thanks for all the hard work you (and the team) are doing to make this seem seamless and easy for us on the receiving end. And thank you for the extra events (including the voice threads) that let us be contributors as well.

Kind words Cathy. Hopefully these changes will encourage and enable more to participate. Thanks. It's a giant team effort. Dean Shareskis last blog post..All K12 Presentations should be 19:53 minutes

This is my 3rd K12 Online Conference, and Ive had a very full first week---so full in fact I have not been able to participate in a live event and have had to put off listening and/or watching until this weekend. But I am very pleased to find that all are the length you have titled here. So far (and that is not saying much considering how much I have been through up until now) I am finding the audios to be the perfect length. I am also finding that I have such a familiarity (even if not experience) with what is being discussed, I dont feel I need to go back and view the videos--thought there are a couple I want to go back and see the examples of kids work shared. All the changes I have noted so far with this K12OL are PERFECT. I am just really excited this weekend to have time to process some of it and catch up. My number one so far has been Chris Betcher's preso, so i guess everyone can tell how far into my itunes I got today. Sigh. Itunes is also my preferred mode to partake of the conference. It is everything the others have been--quite possibly more. You folks have done a fabulous job organizing it. Thanks. Cathy Nelsons last blog post..SCASL Takes a Bite Out of Twilight

I guess we have similar taste. Those two presos have been the highlights of what I've watched so far. Alec did a good job of using the vodcast medium as a movie and not just a moving powerpoint. I also really connected to the insights shared in Kadjer's preso particularly related to the challenges of integrating technology with reluctant students.
