Learning at the Same Time:
February 5th, 2002
Another good article from Stephen Downs on synchronous learning on the web. This is something (for various reasons) that I’ve been investigating a lot recently myself. Audio- and video-conferencing will remain problematic for education until bandwidth is as cheap and irrelevant as megahertz are today. (Does bandwidth follow Moore’s Law? I don’t think so…), as is application sharing. I think application sharing is an underrated educational tool. Anyone know of some scholarship, research, or models on the use of synchronous application sharing in education?
