edWeb.net/emergingtech session #33 - Online PD

Last week, I facilitated edWeb.net/emergingtech's 33rd webinar. Our focus this month was on online professional development. Since the community is familiar with my professional development offerings, I thought it would be far more interesting to feature a panel of experts who have contributed much to the field.

To model an interesting twist in webinar facilitation, I pre-recorded 6 video interviews with the panelists, and introduced each one during the live presentation. A few panelists were able to attend live and participate in the chat.

The webinar recording is posted with the other 32 archived Emerging Tech sessions at edweb.net/emergingtech. And the resources for this webinar are in Pearltrees at bit.ly/edwebet33
