Cyber Classroom?

The other day we tried to experiment with a cyber classroom. While I can see where this idea would be helpful for some students, I wasn't too impressed. I like to talk. I like to listen and respond. I think the cyber classroom took away from the back and forth banter that I'm used to in a classroom. The silence was awkward, everyone typing at once was hard to follow, the drawings were a little distracting, and it was just a little different for my taste. I think the cyber classroom would be a really good idea for people who didn't like to speak in class or who felt uncomforable, but I'm traditional. I'm always open to new things, but I like regular classrooms. HaHa But it was fun while it lasted at least.
