Connectedness
People need to learn how to connect to new people on a
regular basis. No person has all the knowledge needed
to work alone in our connected society. Neither does
any company. Neither does any government. !

We are all connected AND dependent on each other.

23. Share a specific improvement/benefit that has been an
outcome of your experiences with The Center.
I
have
changed
the
way
I
respond
to
student
work
(using
video)
as
a
result
of
several
hangouts
and
the
resulting
discussions.
I
love
the
way
ideas
build
on
each
other
in
the
hangouts,
live
questions,
and
later
comments
in
Google+
and
on
Twitter.
Having
a
topic
active
for
several
days
has
led
me
to
spend
enough
time
thinking
about
it
to
feel
comfortable
trying
something
new
in
my
classes.
Also,
having
a
channel
to
share
how
it
went
with
others
encourages
me
to
do
it
and
improve
upon
it.
With
my
new
awareness
of
what
colleagues
at
other
colleges
are
doing,
I
am
helping
my
college
to
revise
our
Distance
Education
policies
and
training
programs.
I
could
go
on
and
on-‐-‐
The
Center
has
had
a
huge
impact
on
my
teaching
life!
I've
been
inspired
to
do
more
videos
and
screencasts
with
my
online
classes
for
more
instructor
presence.
24. Share a specific improvement/benefit that has been an
outcome of your experiences with The Center.
Gained
many
ideas
for
my
online
&
hybrid
classes
from
the
presentations.
It
has
also
confirmed
that
online
teaching
can
be
as
interactive
if
not
more
than
a
traditional
F2F
class.
Additionally,
these
presentations
reaffirmed
desire
to
pursue
more
online
opportunities.
Thank
you.
I
have
created
a
personal
faculty
web
page.
I
have
started
using
new
programs
like
Haiku
Deck
and
introduced
new
programs
to
colleagues.
Have
found
the
thoughts
of
other
faculty
very
helpful
to
my
online
teaching
and
my
work
with
our
Committee
for
Online
Learning
at
Foothill
College.
Started
a
Google
Hangout
for
a
campus
club
meeting.
Planning
to
use
for
online
office
hours
as
well.
