Yesterday my group and I "got together" on TokBox and had a blast. While the technology was a bit quirky at times, it more more than sufficient for our needs. We had a blast talking about the different browsers that we looked into. We were all sort of surprised that Google's Chrome wasn't one of the ones we were asked to review. I came away from that assignment with a new favorite browser, Opera.
One thing I thought of while we were talking and having grand ol' time is that taking this course online has HUGE advantages over the "traditional" students in the classroom. Now, I don't know for sure how they do their classwork, but I can say with all of my classmates being far away, we definitely benefit from having to use the technology. I'm sure they use it in the regular classes as well, but the need to use it isn't there. I feel like I'm getting a better education for the same price. Kinda like buying a pop from a machine and having two come out.
