Today I experienced teaching a lesson by teleconference to five states including West Virginia, Florida, California, Texas, and New York. Technology is the best "WHEN IT WORKS." I had everything set up for the conference including all of my files, telephone connection, internet connection, and my notes. At the last minute I lost internet connection. I scrambled to fix a desktop in the lab. I transferred all files to my external hard drive and then to the desktop. I moved the landline phone closer to the desktop and the cord was not long enough. I opened internet explorer and the internet connection did not work. I searched to find that the internet cord was not connected to the computer. Finally everything was in working order one minute before the teleconference began. I had to stretch to hold the phone and share my desktop at the same time. After the fiasco, everything else went smoothly.
Thanks to Mrs. Bennett for helping me get everything in working order. I couldn't have done it without you :)
