Adventure at DLA 2009

It has been a great adventure this year at the DLA 2009 conference. First the fun stuff. My father-in-law came with me and we won Most Creative in a sandbuilding contest. We walked on the beach and watched the waves. The balcony is gorgeous and relaxing.

First night was an awards dinner. Italian Buffet was fabulous.

For my fellow Instructional Designers...

The first round of Sessions Included: (Forgive me I am going to use bullet points - UGH!)

• Methods to Address Academic Dishonesty in Distance Learning Programs
• From Chaos to Organization in an Online Class
• Beyond Instruction: Building Sustainable Online Communities
• Online Pedagogy Faculty Development: Enhanced with Instructional Resources
• Online Student Community: Engage and Support eLearning Students College-Wide using your CMS

As always, fabulous speakers and great take aways. I will post some summaries later in the week as well as hopefully a picture of our castle adventure. Until tomorrow...
