Presenter:

Dr. Robert J. Spear,
Distance Learning Program at Prince George's College
and the USDA Graduate School. 

Bob Spear demonstrated various methods of discussing material with your audience from the mundane to the enthusiastic. He presented many thought provoking questions that we needed to ask ourselves as trainers. Bob's email address is spearrj@pgcc.edu should you want to contact him with any additional questions.

Bob also gave us two very good websites that you may find of interest:

www.moodle.org  - Bob suggests this free online course management tool.

www.merlot.org  - Bob suggests this as a good open source for online learning materials.
