Web Conferencing Survey

March 16, 2007 | | 2 Comments

Okay – I know this is a videoconference blog – but I’m sure many of you use web conferencing.

We’re conducting a short survey to find out who is using web conferencing for education and training and what are their tips for good results?

Take this survey (will only take a couple of minutes) whether or not you are using web conferencing and we’ll share the results with you.

That is a GREAT post on conferencing, which is really gaining speed in the market. I can recommend a great conferencing guide for newbees to use when figuring out how to get started. The “Quick Start Guide for Web Conferencing”, which I got on Amazon.com, got me up and running in about 25 minutes:

http://www.amazon.com/Web-Conferencing-Quick-Start-Guide/dp/1448649781/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1250795732&sr=8-1

I read that the http://www.webconferencingcouncil.com had a non-technical relative of equipped with a a Dell E6400 with Windows XP, complete with built-in camera & microphone test this book to see if it was truly a quick start. This relative was able to start a multi-point meeting in 17 minutes, was able to share her desktop and present an online presentation (Microsoft PowerPoint) in under 25 minutes, and even started using the voting and whiteboarding features within 30 minutes – all of it witnessed but uncoached. I was a little bit faster but I am more technical than most.

Thanks for sharing your book with us Brian. I’m currently reading Learning in Real Time: Synchronous Teaching and Learning Online (Online Teaching and Learning Series (OTL)) which will take people to the next level with great ideas on how to facilitate engaging web conferences.
