I just received an email for this and signed up for the webinar tonight at 8:00 p.m. EST. I will try to watch/listen at what will be 5:00 p.m. my time - wish me luck. :)
Anyway, the topic tonight, Schooling Multiple Ages, looks great!
There are many recorded webinars to listen to and some live ones, too, during the Refresh! Midwinter Virtual Conference
Has anyone participated in these?

Wish I had seen your post early enough to join you. After I first saw the announcement last month, have been intending to do some live this year but haven't managed. The timing (6 PM here) is just not good. I have listened to some recorded ones in the past years. I would love to do a live one with folks I know also in "attendance" though.
You'll have to let us know how you liked the one tonight.

I really liked it! Erin Brown Conroy gave the talk and it was very good. Slow start because they may have been waiting for a few women to join or fix the sound or something, but after that I thought her presentation was great. Homeschooling for so long, you think you have things figured out, but I hope to implement several of her ideas that were new to me. My daughter was listening with me (we were making dinner) and she said, "Mom, that woman is your clone!" But, as the presentation went on, clearly Erin is brilliant and joyful and positive and she's written a few books. Her assistant called her 'Professor' at the end. :)
I didn't enjoy the chat going on in the sidebar as much. At one point, it seemed a few women were just having a conversation and it was distracting. But, you are able to ask questions via this chat section which was great at the end.
I liked it! These webinars are free, too!
I hope to listen to Rita Munn on Wednesday and then throughout the rest of Lent listen to some recorded talks.

I liked it, too! I appreciated Erin's interaction with the attendees via the chatbox, although sometimes the chatbox got a little sidetracked. I think Erin did a good job on keeping everyone on task.
The one thing I wish for all the webinars was that there were notes available to print afterwards. I have been taking notes from the recorded webinars but I do wish there were handouts or something. It's hard for me to get quiet time that I need to REALLY listen to the webinars. 
That being said, I can't wait for more!

I am planning on the Rita Munn one, too. Hope to see you there, Erica!
