"Play It Again"
Speaker: Erika Domatti, Associate Professor of ESOL for Deaf and Hard of Hearing, Austin Community College

You know you've said it, and the students were there in the classroom. You walk away feeling good about the class until a student asks you about a point that you not only covered but was also discussed in the last class. Tegrity allows you to capture your lectures so that students can replay them for review and note taking. Tegtity allows students to do this anytime and anywhere. This session will focus on what a visual classroom is and how to use laptops, the smart board, the elmo, the webcams, the viewing software and the lecture capture software.
