Videoconferencing training for 'Meet in School' Project
Four Schools who joined the 'Meet in School' project this term, took part in our first Videoconference training Session. Each of the 4 schools had their kit installed last week and today they all dialled into a Multipoint conference. This enabled all four schools to receive the videoconference training from Neil Sampson (CDEC representative) who was in one of the schools.
This highlights the benefits of videoconferencing right away. No one had to travel miles for their training, they simply had to walk to the classroom, dial into the call and listen to Neil. It was also a great way for the Teachers to practice making a call and to play around with the remote and camera.
All 4 schools made a contribution in the question time section and 2 Teachers even linked up to arrange a History Lesson.
Watch this space for these and other School's case studies to see what exciting videoconferencing projects they get involved in over the next few weeks.
