I had a very interesting experience this morning presenting a session about higher ed podcasting in the US to a room full of people at the University of Warwick in the UK.
No long flight or dreadful jet lag required (but no nice sightseeing in the UK either :-).
I did my presentation using WebEx and my dear webcam. What was really neat about this experience was the fact that Tom Abbott, Web Manager at the University of Warwick — who invited me to present in the first place at the Podcasting for Education conference — took the time to set up a webcam in the room so I could see the audience as well (and they even clapped at the end, really nice people ;-).
Next best thing after being there.
The goal for this presentation was to share an overview of the most interesting higher ed podcasting initiatives, so I can’t say that I presented any earth-shattering concepts. However, I took the time to pull together a good list of web links on delicious that you might find useful.
I also recorded the 35-minute presentation followed by a quick Q&A. Just let me know if any of you would like to get a link to that recording.
