Summary Week 1

The first week of our third quarter! We have come a long way in the project! As Dr. Sickel mentioned, this week the students have been suggesting various possible journals for our future article. For me, it has been interesting to observe the great interest the students have in the project and the support they offer each other. We have definitely become a team; it is wonderful to watch the development of the group.

The instructors have been working behind the scenes on some projects to promote the use of virtual labs. We are doing a training session during the Miami faculty meeting in January, and have been preparing all of our materials. It feels like we have learned so much about how to develop the labs and train students, we are excited to share our knowledge with others. We are also submitting a proposal for the Annual Conference on Distance Education and Learning in August. The proposal is due in January, so we’ve been working through how best to approach a presentation.
