Experiencing eLearning

APRIL 1, 2010

These are my live blogged notes from Karen Hyder’s webinar, Key Steps to Preparing Great Synchronous Interactions from the Training Magazine Network. “Death by PowerPoint online is worse than Death by PowerPoint in the classroom&# (not an exact quote, but gets the gist of what she said). My side comments in italics.

Unfortunately, this was a 3-hour meeting with a string of PowerPoint presentations. A PowerPoint presentation will work just as well with WebEx (or just a recording). We decided to mute, similar to what we would do with a big group in a web conferencing tool like WebEx or Elluminate. This is best when it’s interactive.

Online course with asynchronous (LMS) & synchronous (Web conferencing). Hearing and speaking during synchronous meetings. Elluminate has real-time captioning available (I’ve never seen anyone use this in a presentation before–very nicely done. It’s not just whether it’s possible, but how usable it is.

Learning with e's

FEBRUARY 3, 2012

I regularly present live (synchronous) webinars or web seminars, and other teaching sessions from my home office, or from a hotel room, and conceivably just about anywhere else there is connectivity to the internet. But what tools do we use to enable us to connect with these communities, resources, audiences around the globe?

Dimdim delivers synchronized live presentations, whiteboards and web pages while sharing your voice and video over the Internet - with no download. I have used www.dimdim.com before and Elluminate (but this is not open source.) Elluminate is a really nice tool but not open source. Big Blue Button is my favorite at the moment!

The Learning Circuits

To me Real Time Collaboration (RTC) solutions like Macromedia Breeze , Centra , WebEx , Elluminate etc replicate oh so many of the problems we face in the traditional face-to-face model. For effective collaboration you need to synchronize not only the tools and people but also the processes. (1) sit and listen).
