On Sunday 15 September, I gave a webinar presentation using Adobe Connect as part of a series of online events hosted by the IATEFL Learning Technologies Special Interest Group. The webinar was moderated by Heike Philp, the new online events organiser. The slides are embedded below while the recording is available (to LTSIG members only) - here - under the events archive.
It was my first experience of being a presenter to an IATEFL audience. Despite some early audio issues, it seemed to go OK. 50 or so participants turned up, with many contributing in the chat window.
This was a view of the webinar as seen by the LTSIG treasurer, Sophia Mavridi, and the view from my end:

Abstract:
Most of us have to,
at some point, use ICT or web tools as part of our practice, but how autonomous
are we when it comes to learning those tools?
To what extent do we teach ourselves and to what extent do we learn from
others? What training do we expect, if
any? How can we create our own autonomy?
This webinar is intended to build on research carried out for a master’s
dissertation. Hopefully, it will also provide
an up-to-date snapshot of current practice and you will be invited to participate
in adding to this research for possible further publication.
