Editor's Notes
We can’t get a videoconference or satellite class so you don’t have to do this one.
Permission granted Do not participate Sign in as guest
You all have already signed up for a topic. I ask that you get this done asap so we can start putting it together.
Here is an example of using my web site. Remember to use good design principle like visible fonts, links, etc. You want to make sure you have a good main page with all the info clearly visible.
Here is the assignment list and who is responsible for which area. And of course we need the main page to be done first so we can fit the other parts to this puzzle in terms of color schemes and fonts etc. Are there any questions?
This project is designed for you to discover a way to use distance education to help improve and already existing project or course, or to create a new one. This must be real and with some department or school or business. Any questions?
A videoconference (also known as a video teleconference ) is a set of interactive telecommunication technologies which allow two or more locations to interact via two-way video and audio transmissions simultaneously.
How do you prepare to videoconference apart from the technical side? You have to prepare your materials as you normally do so they can be visible to your students.
In order to achieve successful results, you need to…
gas and oil prices have risen rapidly in recent times, which is inevitably going to make flying more expensive. If you have a choice of flying a dozen salespeople into your main head office for training, as an example, or hooking up a videoconference, it's easy to guess which is going to be more cost efficient. Videoconferencing can be used for training, business meetings, client presentations, interviews, client updates, and so on, all at a fraction of the cost involved in moving people around the country.
Currently, 85% of businesses use broadband rather than dial-up to connect to the internet, and that's only going to increase in the coming years. So as most businesses already have the broadband technology available at the workplace, hooking up a videoconference is made much simpler and cheaper. More than 60% of homes now have broadband too, so employees can easily join a videoconference from home.
Web cameras are also becoming more powerful and of a higher standard. It's possible to pick up a cheap web camera and still be able to transmit a picture of reasonable quality. This is helping videoconferencing become more widely used, as it's become so much simpler to join a group of people together using web cameras. Only a few years ago this wasn't possible, because the quality of web cameras was so poor. Now the images are much clearer, which helps make videoconferencing a success. Web cameras are easy to find, with computer and electronic stores as well as department stores having them available for anything from ten dollars right through to hundreds of dollars.
Money is saved when people don't need to travel, but also an enormous amount of time is saved. By the time someone drives to the airport, goes through security, waits for their flight, flies, picks up their baggage at the other end, drives to a hotel.... half a day or more of productive time is lost. With videoconferencing, as soon as the meeting is over you can go back into your office and get on with your work, not spend another half a day traveling.
Video conferencing is also becoming more widely used in education at all levels. It's especially popular in the institutions of higher learning. Videoconferencing allows all sorts of new learning experiences to take place, and early results suggest that students gain a great deal from the experience of learning things in a visual way. It's easier to show how something is done, or learn about other cultures. It also means that an expert can spare an hour of time to talk to a class, without disrupting the day extensively. Previously, the expert may have had to put aside at least half a day to allow time to get to or from the school, which would make the idea of talking to a class less appealing.
Conversation and body language can enhance communication. Interactive teaching strategies such as questioning and discussion can involve and motivate learners. Remote experts can validate understanding and provide practical examples. The real-world connection improves motivation. Graphics and photos look great on slides and can help to communicate a difficult concept Some systems allow application sharing which encourages collaboration and feedback in real-time.
And as we have already mentioned, you can send 100 terabits per second per fiber .. 1 terabit = 1012 bits = 1,000,000,000,000 bits (one trillion ,
The basic service is intended to meet the needs of most individual users. PRI is intended for users with greater capacity requirements.
This information is at most 2 yrs old and may have changed a little toward the fiber optic end.
Bandwidth dependent meaning the bandwidth fluctuates depending on usage
Simplex…type of data transmission where data travels in only one direction. For example, a print job is only sent from the computer to the printer. Half-duplex…Full Duplex transmission indicates the transmission of data in two directions simultaneously. For example, on a local area network with full-duplex transmission, one workstation can be sending data on the line while another workstation is receiving data. On the other hand, a half duplex transmission indicates that data transmission happens only in one direction at a time. is the rate at which information is processed by a transmission facility .
