Videoconferencing and Teaching
Why use videoconferencing?• Enhance learning experience
– Language teaching– Input from an expert
• Multi-site colleges• Distance learning / Inclusivity
– Teaching tool– Support tool– Training in the workplace– Standard Conferencing

Videoconferencing and Teaching
Why use videoconferencing?
• Make courses viable
– Low student numbers – chainsaw maintenance
• Share lecturer expertise
• Give students access to techniques you could not otherwise demonstrate
• Its fun and easy!
Telephones with Pictures

Preparation of Materials

Preparation of Materials
Selecting and designing
• Quality rather than quantity
• Not all images will be suitable such as: complicated diagrams
detailed notes
certain colours and graphics
finely detailed slides

Preparation of Materials
Selecting and designing
Font size and style:
Text size should be at least 24 point Smaller text will transmit badly and may be impossible to read at the receiving site even if its just legiable on your confidence monitor
Don’t use lots of fonts Don’t use lots of colours

Preparation of Materials
Support Materials
• Preparation of support materials prior to delivery of course
handouts to go to local and remote students – procedures for doing this
continuity of delivery even if visual output goes down
communication procedures – especially with remote audience
student / lecturer
lecturer / facilitator
student / student

Practical Implications

Practical Implications
The Teaching Environment
• Course delivery is to multiple sites delivery may assist and benefit remote students but what about local students?
• Control of different technologies as well as teaching having to worry about changing visual feeds and learning new applications.
• Additional session planning pre-planning of the session, and pre-planning of a contingency plan if technology fails, or session doesn’t go as planned
• The ability to change the session plan according to needs of the audience
just as might happen in more traditional delivery methods

Practical Implications
The Teaching Environment
Therefore >>>>
Practice !!

Practical Implications
Practice
• Don’t try to run before you can walk
• Get comfortable with the room and the technology before attempting delivery of courses
• Conference with colleagues in other institutions they will want to practice too!!
• Get technical support to sit in on at least the 1st few sessions
• Informal sessions always work best, so have a sense of humour
• Use the technology as a tool – enhancement is the key to it’s success!
