junto

first official time... just Bernd, Adam and I

second official time.. add Jim in the mix and Bernd recording..

Edchat first virtual meetup on Junto from Bernd Nurnberger on Vimeo.

Bernd blogged about this plan. amazing.. will be very cool to document/tag conversation.
the goal is to get more value out of live energetic conversation that builds collective intelligence, as Venessa and collaborators envisioned in the Junto concept.

huge thank you to all the Junto creators... @VenessaMiemis @aquarious @notthisbody @gavinkeech @CoCreatr

then tonight... a smattering of people.. like a drop in party.. no recording.. just a lot of testing. and laughing.

thank you @giftedteacher, lauren, aimee, maddie, keaton, amy, toni, @wrathofmobius, liz, seth, @gcouros, @hassl2325, @lasic, and mr4 for giving it a go. 

i hollered everyone up via the link on twitter or skype, most kids i texted and had them go to talk.ed chat for the link.

when we got done.. found this on talk-ed. 

kids are so cool. it's summer.. and they show up on a whim.. one even in costa rica.

give it a try? go to http://dave.parsons.edu/junto/ and create a room... once in.. the bottom left corner will have a link to share with those you want to join.

hints: everyone use ear buds, click on the modem and drop to dsl, add webcam in settings, just to the left of close
