   Deb,
   What a great combined use of this exercise/technology! It sounded as if folks were having fun - you can see how these “I messages” could be quite fun. Having people learn more about the messages to apply later while at the same time having them use the technology is an excellent strategy!
   Thanks, Jonathan, for introducing this quick, fun activity to us. I can see how you could use it in an online class as an icebreaker and even as a way to get students reflecting on different aspects of the class.
   Great work! Do you have more of these?
   Cindy

   Dear Cindy:

   Thank you for your comments! It is great fun figuring out ways to use the technology to engage the audience. With my co facilitators at The Center for Parenting Education, we look for ways to feel connected to our audience when we can’t see them. Another activity we have tried is to have participants rate themselves on a scale. For example, it could be used as an ice breaker - “How comfortable are you with this technology?” Like you, I look forward to learning new and interesting ways to present our material creatively.
   Deb

   Thanks Deb for a great activity! Hope it’ll work off-line too.

   Congratulations on the Real Time Minute thing, Jonathan!
   By the way, how did you make a recording ( which is a . mov file ) ? What sort of tools did you use?
