YouTube Video: eLearning: How to deliver an engaging Virtual Classroom presentation, by Claudia Dornbusch.

Indiana University provides video primers for eLearning. This video is worth a watch (If just to listen to the creator's goofy humour).

Reflect on the readings and write this week's Blog/Learning Journal Post. Note that you will be wanting to add to your post as the week progresses. Your post is not due until the end of the week. All Blog/Learning journal entries are evaluated according to this Criteria.

You may want to discuss your experience with your LMS:

• What limitations did you find?
• What did you like/love about it?
• How do you think things are changing with the influx and abundance of Web 2.0 tool integration we are seeing in education?
• Weave the readings for Weeks 4-5 into your post.
