Online Meetings are about how we can use Web 2.0 technology to facilitate online meetings in a number of different areas, and for a number of different reasons.
There were many different ideas that I picked up on from the tool discussions. Online meetings can be used for discussions, or to have monthly meetings for both staff and administration. They can offer everyone more of a chance to get his or her ideas heard. Also, people will feel more confident and powerful, but in a good way of course. Online meetings are also a great solution to conference calls, which can be overwhelming at times, by losing track of who is actually speaking. There can also be pre-postings before the meetings about subject content, so employees can be prepared for discussions and have relevant questions and ideas ready. We also have the option of making these meeting larger or smaller. They can start more intimate maybe for different topics that will be discussed, and then switch into larger group discussions. There are really so many options. There was also a discussion about online meetings for students that could help them with class scheduling, tutoring, and brainstorming ideas. These would also be kept private and would be by invite only. Both of these concepts seem very interesting. I hope they will be up and running by the time I enter the teaching profession.
