There are many ways to connect and many reasons for connecting. We use publicly available tools to make the connections easier.
Our associates and senior associates sometimes wish to connect with each other over time.
Course participants may wish to stay in touch with each other or meet each other for the first time on line.
Individuals may have thoughts or questions and can help each other and share stories.
Participants and colleagues may wish to share their thoughts, experiences and ideas on blogs connected to Caine Learning.
We use Ning as our preferred site for social networking. Those who wish to talk with each other over time can create closed conversations on specific themes or open ended conversations to suit themselves.
We use Edublogs as our preferred way of setting up blogs. It is a free service for educators and those writing about education. In due course we will be happy to create links between our site and appropriate blogs.
We use Yahoo as the basis for our chat rooms as the need arises.
We use the free conference service at 1-712-5807700 for conference calls from time to time.
Introductions
We use Vyew as our preferred way of conducting online conferences and courses. It enables us to talk to each other, see each other, share slideshows at a distance, use a whiteboard together, archive proceedings and more.
