Videoconferencing
Distance Learning through Videoconferencing
Videoconferencing is a live, interactive, two-way audio/video connection between two or more physically separated locations. Faculty, staff and students can participate in classes and meetings occurring at any location -- worldwide -- that is equipped to handle IP- or ISDN-based connections, be they government, private, or university facilities. Videoconferencing can be a great alternative to in-person meetings, reducing both travel time and expenses.
UC videoconference systems provide users with a full range of capabilities, including:
- Full motion video
- Graphics
- Audio
- VCR/DVD playback and recording
- Integrated computer-based presentations
- Multi-point presence (displaying up to four conference sites)
Videoconferencing/Distance Learning is available 24 hours a day; scheduling requires 72 hour notice (3 business days).
