INSTRUCTIONAL TECHNOLOGY STUDENT ASSOCIATION (ITSA)

IDT Students and Alumni:
Instructional Design and Technology Career Presentations

Get a glimpse of great career opportunities in the field of Instructional Design & Technology!!!

Learn from a former student Larry Carver who is a Director of Instructional Design and Technology at Hutchinson Community College, and Ron McGuinty who is a corporate Manager of Analysis and Design at ADR in Wichita, KS., and June Coleman-Hull Director and David Milford Assistant Director of career services here at ESU who would like to help you prepare for your job searching process. You can also talk to current IDT professors and students.

ITSA would like to encourage everyone to come to Visser Hall, Room 330, from 6:30-7:30 p.m. (central) on Tuesday, October 16th for this opportunity to learn and network with other students and professionals. We will have speakers with us from the corporate sector, higher education, and the ESU Careers office. If you cannot attend, we will be sharing the distance/online presentations via Horizon-Wimba. Please check this website for Horizon-Wimba instructions the week prior to the event.

The panel session will be streamed (Video with Audio) with the Horizon Wimba live classroom tool. To participate, click on -

Questions for the panelists may be submitted via chat. Due this being our first try at streaming video in HW, we will not be accepting audio from remote participants - only chat.

I urge you to go to http://www.emporia.edu/tcs/Online Support/Wimba/Wimba_tips.htm sometime before the panel session to be sure that everything is working o.k.

Be sure to read:
1. Setting up Wizard and RUN the
2. Practice Session
As you will see, there are minimum requirements and other helpful hints at the site.

When you first go into the practice session link, the setup wizard will download a client/plug-in and will check to be sure that everything will work properly. Be SURE to read all of the prompts in the set-up wizard and do exactly what it asks - like clicking ALWAYS ALLOW, etc.. You will be glad that you did! Also, be sure that your pop-up blocker is turned off.
