Navigate 2.1.2 Recorded Session

I'm not gonna lie, I put this quest off until I had completed all of the other Navigate quests.  The process seemed a little daunting and although I'm not at all a procrastinator I felt like I needed to be in the right mindset for this one.  I ended up playing around with all of the resources suggested in the quest.  My first attempt was Adobe Connect because I believe that's the vendor used by GaVS.  The most difficult part of using Adobe Connect was figuring out the downloads.  After that, it's pretty simple to push a button and begin recording.  I've seen other asynchronous course presentations (they may also have initially been presented synchronously but recorded for future playback) by other online teachers that incorporate music and a lot of other effects so I definitely plan to play around with it a bit more to figure out how to make lessons more engaging.  Big Blue Button was pretty simple too.  Push the button to record with live chat as well.  I can foresee one of the most important issues being recording the synchronous lesson for playback by instructor or students asynchronously because if you forget to do that you'll have to go back to record and may have missed out on conversations and questions presented during the class meeting.  I found Go To Meeting to be the simplest to use but due to the fact that it's for smaller groups (max 25) it's not necessarily the best application for a class meeting.  Maybe for a small group break out session though.  The process was a lot easier than I expected it to be and I now feel more confident than I did before this quest.
