Do you ooVoo?? My mentor does!! :)

I am so excited that my mentor Pat got her web cam hooked up! We used it tonight and I am thrilled that we are going to be able to connect more easily now and really it was great that she now knows how easy it is to use a web cam. There are a few "bugs" but what technology without that~ LOL I'm sure we can get it fixed soon. I actually got my sound to finally work tonight after months of not working so I was thrilled about that too! Thanks Pat!

Hi Sarah. It's wonderful to see that you're enjoying ooVoo. I write for ooVooworld, the unofficial WOM world for ooVoo, and I'm looking for opinions and experiences of how people are using the application. I'd love to see some screenshots or to hear more about how you're doing!

If you need any help with the tech problems feel free to ooVoo me (username ooVooMolly).

Cheers, Molly

Hi there Sarah. I am working on behalf of ooVoo and am so glad to see that the deaf community is choosing ooVoo as a solution. I have to say, though, that I really don't know how to appeal to the deaf community. Would you be willing to give me some tips as to where the conversation is happening? Maybe help me out as I work out outreaching? Every community has its own protocol and I just don't want to make a mess of it. Also, I want to let you know that ooVoo just allowed me the freedom to share the Mac version of ooVoo with you. Anyway, I would love to get your help. Thanks in advance.

NIC Rubric for Interview Portion of Test

The NIC Rubric was introduced for the first time at this workshop!! WHOA! I have been studying really hard for the NIC written test but had no idea the depth and challenge that this next part of the NIC test would be. I have a general overview of how they conduct the interview and how they will base the 5 sections for 5 minutes each on the NAD-RID Code of Professional Conduct, on how you can take multiple perspectives from all members of the community ex: Deaf, hearing, intperperter, etc. , How you need to focus on short term but also long term effects, etc. They gave out some practice senarios and I have a LOT of notes. I figure after my written test is over and I set up a test date I can really start to focus my attention on this part of the test as well as the preformance...just take one thing at a time. I'm just glad I have a basic understanding of what to expect and an outline of what to study and what they expect from me during the interview portion.
