Interactive Distance Learning Project Interactive Distance Learning ( IDL ) is a term used to describe an interactive educational video network that connects two or more locations, eliminating the barriers of concrete walls, time and distance. These shared video environments are fully interactive with everyone seeing and hearing each other live. Instead of face to face instruction like a traditional classroom, students and teachers see each other on large monitors or on a large screen with a projected image. These video classrooms are equipped with state-of-the-art teaching tools such as laptops, document cameras (ELMO), student response systems, VCR/DVD players, video compression units, and interactive whiteboards.

Editor's Notes

  1. Current projects from PVE: 4 th grade students are studying the regions of USA and comparing them to Kansas/Midwest region by creating a brochure for Kansas and another region of the USA for Sunflower Travel Agency 5 th grade students are studying math and geography by piggy backing off the reality show The Amazing Race. Students are grouped and “dropped off” on one of the seven continents. They then have to be the first group back to PVE to win. Current projects from Anderson: 4 th grade students are studying butterflies habitat and lifecycle collaboratively with other schools. Students are tagging butterflies while visiting Botanica, having a butterfly migration professional visit the classroom, researching the habitat and life cycles of butterflies and plants and sharing that with the other classrooms. The culminating activity will be planting a butterfly garden in the spring.
