EVO 2006 WebPresence 2, the Blog!

This is Eman talking to Barbara. Eman is is very observant; actually she was the only one who heard the sound in the background at Barbara’s end.  Watch the movie to learn more about the source of that sound, Eman noticed!

PS I’m so sorry that Adel’s part has disappeard!! Adel held such a professional business conversation with Barbara, trying to convince her to open a saving account at the branch of Gulf Bank he manages. It’s really a pity, as it was so interesting. I hope things wrok better in terms of technology during our next voice-text chat event.

This is Othman, the youngest Branch Manager in the group,  talking to Barbara.

Enjoy! 

Thanks to Barbara Sawhill for talking to us through Skype, yesterday, Monday, April 17, 2006.

You are watching,  Abeer having a conversation with Barbara about the kind of difficulties English learners encounter sometimes. Participants took turns to talk to our virtual guest.

It was the first synchronous voice-text chat project, arranged for a group of GB branch managers, participating in this ESP program prepared for them, aiming to improve their oral and technical writing skills.

It was an interesting activities that we all enjoyed. I am expecting to hear some feedabck from the participants, on yesterday’s event, through their Odeo channels, they should have created by now!

More on this, soon :)
