My thanks to everyone who came to my session during NCSM’s Free Virtual Conference<\/a>, and of course many thanks to NCSM and TI for making this happen.<\/p>\n

In case you hadn’t guessed, doing a webinar as a presenter is NOT like doing a session live, mainly in that I can’t have any focused back-and-forth with the attendees (and I can’t see anyone!).\u00a0 But there was great participation in the chat, and having that channel of communication going on adds a whole new dimension to learning – instead of just talking to your learning partner when I ask you to, you can talk to everyone the whole time, while also taking notes, tweeting, taking screenshots, and drinking (hopefully good) coffee.\u00a0 I hope that those of you who are now responsible for “teaching” your students online get a little inspiration about ways to expand or revise what you’ve been doing, both technology-wise and in terms of tasks and foci.<\/p>\n

I brought up Christopher Danielson’s book, Which One Doesn’t Belong<\/a>. There is a web site at wodb.ca<\/a>.\u00a0 I also mentioned an adorable picture of my niece and my dad:\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I encourage many of you to try out the NYTimes Learning Network’s project, What’s Going On in This Graph?<\/a>. During my session we looked at the (timely!) graph that will be the focus tomorrow, April 1.<\/p>\n

I said I would also point to Zak Champagne’s Ignite, The Math Ahead, The Math Behind<\/a>, in which he talks about asking questions you don’t know the answer to in order to become a better listener.<\/p>\n

I’ll add anything else that I think of (or that someone requests), but I know that all you really wanted was my slides.\u00a0 I’ve also included the chat transcript in text form – it might be ugly, but you can go at your own speed!\u00a0 So here goes:<\/p>\n
