Online Training Test Session


Recommended Posts

Folks,

I bought a Webex subscription so we can do online training. It has a Dial in toll free number or VOIP and you can share video, applications, documents, pictures or a whiteboard to draw on. I want to run a test this week. I am thinking on Thursday at 8:00pm, if you want an invite to try it please post your email address in this thread. I figured we could go over a shoe.

BTW Ellis's son Mark is in the hospital that's why Ellis is a bit quiet for the moment.

I think this is an excellent idea. It has all the advantages of an on site training seminar w/o near the expenses.

It will take a few practice runs to develop this training method to its full potential but I'm game for that.

As I reported on another thread, unfortunately there is little benefit to watching someone play in a casino. You can see WHAT they did but you still don't know WHY they did it, nor do they have time to explain during the heat of live play. I picture this tool as allowing us to explain our actions during play as well as getting all your questions answered. WHO says you can't teach an old dog new tricks.

On the other front, I have received no definitive word from ICU as yet but it doesn't look good. They seem too busy with him to bother about me.

I can't help but think about the merits of this program. It seems to me it would make teaching so much easier. Nearly everybody these days is a visual learner. I can write a 60 page manual and the first question will be: "What the hell are all those circles?" But, if you guys can WATCH me (or anybody) play a shoe and if I can explain every move and you can ask your questions right then and there, I think its a giant step in the right direction.

I realize we have to pay for this on line seminar program. And the teacher's time to some extent.

But I'm thinking the more people we can get enrolled in such a program the cheaper it will be for each student. Is that not right Keith? I'm hoping we can get EVERYBODY enrolled and get this down to a negligible expense for everybody.

I know we used to get surprising turn outs for live training seminars at $400 per head on top of travel expense. Yet we never managed to turn a profit on any one of them. But for most students that was the only way they could learn and learn they did. They were extremely successful from a learning standpoint if not from a profit standpoint.

I'm hoping we can get everyone to jump on this band wagon.

I don't know yet under the circumstances if I can be available Thursday or not. But I'm sure you guys can iron out the wrinkles and do all the work for me as usual.

Guys ellis is on a vigil at the hospital with his son. I am going to reschedule this for Sunday.

Even better, by 8:00 pm last night I was beginning to run a fever and was alternately going from to hot to shivering…buffalo robes to cold packs etc.

I haven’t been around much lately and was curious how this web conference thing would work out.

I want to add to the others here wishing Ellis and his son a heart felt blessing. Tom

I was there but could not get the sound. What would be nice in a next session is to watch Ellis or Keith playing at a live casino. Explaining each decisions; which system to play, which progression,when changing of system using SAP and OR , stop win , stop loss. I think it is what every members are expecting.

Agreed, that will be a more effective approach.
