Videoconference-based Professional Development

Dr. Wesley Fryer (@wfryer) presents a variety of professional development workshops as videoconferences. If your school has invested in H.323 videoconferencing gear from Cisco (formerly Tandberg), Polycom, Lifesize, or another vendor, you can affordably “bring Wesley virtually” to your teachers and administrators via an H.323 videoconference. An updated list of PD sessions Wesley offers via videoconference is available on the CILC (Center for Interactive Learning and Collaboration) website. You can directly request a videoconference presentation by Wesley by using the CILC’s request system. Wesley’s workshops by videoconference include:
