Elluminate practice

Practice made proficient. It took me a while to sign in and be comfortable with eluminate the first night and thinking I wanted to see what I missed and how much easier the tool is to use, I joined a session the second time and it was much easier. I try to capture the feelings I have as a novice to be able to relate to how the classroom teacher will feel when a new tool is introduced. I got right on and felt much more at ease and will be able to say from experience, I believe they will be able to get the hang of things quickly. It was odd to speak because you cannot see the audience to get a feeling for their reaction or know for sure if you are heard. I will want to be sure to give feedback to the speaker in the similar way that I do if I am in the room if someone is speaking to the general audience or me if no one else speaks up. I am also happy I joined tonight’s group because I now have better feel for what happens with different size audiences and a topic I will enjoy came up. I love children’s literature.
