2010-02-26 12:04:56 [Message] mary engstrom -> Room 1: Thanks for joining us, everyone.
2010-02-26 12:05:58 [Message] K Smithk -> Room 1: :) Sound works this week.  Have read Charles' earlier review book (82).
2010-02-26 12:08:02 [Message] Cammy Bean -> Room 1: Hi Kelly!
2010-02-26 12:08:49 [Message] K Smithk -> Room 1: :-) Hi all - Reminds me of Merrill a little
2010-02-26 12:11:19 [Message] K Smithk -> Room 1: How do performers know about performance gap - do they recognize it all the time
2010-02-26 12:12:13 [Message] linda u -> Room 1: Can easily integrate jump-off point into the places they look for information (online help, documentation)
2010-02-26 12:13:12 [Message] linda u -> Room 1: Better integration between technical communication products (doc, online help, knowledgebases) and "learning" products
2010-02-26 12:13:22 [Message] mary engstrom -> Room 1: Charles, which system will be (or is) more difficult to "move:"  K-12 or higher ed?  What challenges and constraints are unique to each system?
2010-02-26 12:13:45 [Message] K Smithk -> Room 1: Do performers know they are performing something wrong - is there a feedback - alarm etc.
2010-02-26 12:16:30 [Message] DBlack -> Room 1: Perhaps instructors must adjust to the role of participants on a different group project... that is one where the project/task is setting up instructional space to include the needed elements to support learning... instead of the traditional role that, however student-centered in an industrial model, is largely still instructor-centered.
2010-02-26 12:17:17 [Message] Gerry -> Room 1: Sorry folks - something has come up and I have to check out.
2010-02-26 12:17:55 [Message] DBlack -> Room 1: Yes.. the k-12/higher ed issue. Really shouldn't we integrate these into a K-20 model.
2010-02-26 12:19:40 [Message] linda u -> Room 1: That is similarities to the Waldorf method (teacher has ongoing role over years)
2010-02-26 12:20:33 [Message] K Smithk -> Room 1: thanks for stating question
2010-02-26 12:21:12 [Message] mary engstrom -> Room 1: You're welcome, K Smith.:)

2010-02-26 12:25:55 [Message] Meghan Squires -> Room 1: I'm trying, but having trouble finding it....
2010-02-26 12:26:18 [Message] K Smithk -> Room 1: Had a foundation fro higher ed. Teaching is the application/practice - OJT
2010-02-26 12:29:18 [Message] linda u -> Room 1: I find myself immediately thinking of privacy issues around the student's educational record
2010-02-26 12:30:56 [Message] K Smithk -> Room 1: Standards for mastery should be the same in different geographic areas?
2010-02-26 12:36:45 [Message] K Smithk -> Room 1: Thanks :-)
