Wk1 Wimba: Course Intro


Screenshot of Wk 1 Wimba with Professor Bustillos.

Watching the Wimba archive, I immediately noticed the sound was muffled and a little hard to hear. Even with my headset I was still unable to clearly hear Professor Bustillos. I was actually surprised by this especially because of the mic that was used during Wimba, which looked like a professional radio station mic. Aside from the sound, Wimba did clear up what month 11 is going to look like and was given a run down about what is expected from us within the course.

This course is a little different in the way it is set up and gives us a chance to kind of fine tune our CBR website by adding some of those finishing touches.  Also we were made aware that if we are unable to complete items or projects on time we will not be able to move on to month 12, which is completely understandable. So deadlines must be paid some considerable attention to so that we do not end up in this category.

Another point made in Wimba is how Spring break will be incorporated into the course. From my understanding Week 2 course material will not be due until the 15th of April besides the week 2 discussion posts we should get in by the 6th.  What I like about Spring break showing up in the middle of this course is that it will allot this time so that we can get some things caught up and finish up corrections for CBR submission as well as the Leadership project and abstract that will be due shortly after that. So it is actually coming at a perfect time.

In addition to the previous activities mentioned we also need to make corrections given to us by Dr. Bedard so that are CBR website is ready for final submission. These corrections must be done prior to April 16th or else it will affect our standing with moving forward to month 12.



Week one Wimba was pretty informative and covered a lot of questions about some of the fundamental dates and activities we will be encountering throughout the month.

  1. Sorry about the muffled sound... can't tell what the others hear unless they say something... must look into this further. Thanks again.
