April Online Meeting, April 25th 2008, 1-5 p.m.
We decided that instead of TIMAC Video Conference we would hold an online meeting for Cohort 4 folks (since they have not had that experience in TIMAC yet). However other TIMACers are welcome, too.

Even though we are very excited about video conferencing, we realize that purchasing and using such technology is most likely not going to be feasible for adult ed in the near future, and that's why we decided to model and showcase using technologies that are more easily available to us.
