1-to-1 does make a difference...

It's was just a quick observation, when we attended the FS Sharing session. Not talking about the content or what's delivered in the session; it's about the degree of 'participation'.

Indeed, I thought our table stood out... probably because we were so 'ourselves' (at home) - so naturally that we brought our own macbooks with us when turned up for the meeting.

Out of 6 tables:

• 5 tables, each had one computer for 5-6 personnel
• 1 table, i.e. ours, in a 1-to-1 configuration

When working on the first activity - when the participants were to enter their inputs to the googlespreadsheet: While the rest needed to share one screen and read what's required to do; what we did was to immediately shared out the worksheet and everybody at the table could view, discuss and start contributing to where we think we could. Well, it's a good illustration how 1-to-1 configuration has changed the way people work and collaborate :)

Ah! I'm impressed with what the fluency and teamwork demonstrated :) Hope that those around has sensed how different the learning and participation experience, given the appropriate environment.

Cheers!
