Past CALL Conference - Access to recordings

"Upgrading Online" Conference

NorQuest College in Edmonton, Alberta and Bow Valley College in Calgary, Alberta had a "Upgrading Online" conference. While sessions were not directed towards ESL students, the sessions do give you a lot of information about best practices for online teaching and learning.

The conference was on March 25 and 26, 2010, but the link has been provided below to the conference and the recordings. The conference was done in the live chat rooms. If you want to watch the NorQuest College recordings, when you go to watch the them, you'll need to download Elluminate Live. For Bow Valley's recordings you will use Adobe Acrobat Connect Pro Meeting, which will download for you. The usernames and passwords are given to you with the links to the recordings.

Even if you don't watch the recordings, the handout for the first session provides a lot of interesting and useful links to articles and websites with great online teaching tips and information.

The following url will take you to the day and all of the recordings that were captured:
