I really enjoyed this chat.   The topic was  What have you noticed about relating to your colleagues through text in Connect vs f2f interactions in a classroom?

As evidenced by the dialogue, what I took away from this chat was the importance of f2f connections.   Once we realized that there was a way to show our faces and hear each other’s voices, we all began to show our true selves.  Our conversations lightened and became quite humorous.   It was almost like we had been starved of this and became silly with joy over the ability to see each other.   Given our reaction, I would suggest integration of this fantastic feature of Connect in future online classes.
