Braz-tesol conference took place between
14-17 July in Fortaleza. Several speakers from Brazil and abroad shared experience, presented research and made contacts.
A highlight for me was the
Edutech Sig meeting on 14 July where I was able to meet e-friends I had never met f2f:
Ana Falcão, Bee Dieu, Jose Antonio and Graham Stanley. We had a great time hugging each other, taking pictures, listening to what they had to say and experiencing the wonders of live broadcasting with
UStream. Graham had his laptop recording the full session and both speakers and participants were able to interact with online participants. Can you imagine how happy I was when I heard Carla Arena, Illya, Nina and other LWCers were actually following us (watching us and hearing us)?

Another great moment for me was my own session
“BLOG TALKS” where I shared blog projects I have developed in the last 2 years since I joined the Learning With Computers Community. In spite of the deafening sound of someone pounding on the wall which interrupted me for some time, the objective of sharing was accomplished. I had also created
A BLOG to share with participants instead of providing a hand-out (saving trees); idea copied from Carla Arena and Erika´s session 2 years ago “Connect to Interact”.
I´ve also included
pictures taken during the session and the
slides I used during the session with
audio narration. Hope you like it!
I´d also like to thank all twitterers who followed and gave me support before, during and after my session. It´s great to see how warm and supportive people can be.
