Last year, in an effort to further my teaching ability in the classroom, another seminary principal and I worked a technological plan out so that he could visit my classroom without ever leaving his. Enterprise is located approximately 45 miles east of NOWHERE, so in order for my colleagues to participate in some sort of inservice we decided to let technology solve our problem.
Bro. Leavitt and I set up Skype accounts and often communicated through that medium rather than by telephone so as to promote face-to-interface communication. We not only had face to face capabilities that way but often would broadcast Snow Canyon Seminary Faculty Meeting that way so that I could participate in the discussions as well. We decided to try our luck using Skype as a class observation tool so that Bro. Leavitt could virtually sit in my classroom and give me face to face feedback without ever having to make the lonely drive to Enterprise. What an effective way to use technology for spiritual distance education purposes.
