Academical resources
Need to convince your colleagues or school board? Want to know more, but in an academical way? This is wat academics are saying about remote learning via web conferencing tools
- Anderson and Elloumi (2004) claim that "Educational institutions are moving toward the use of the Internet for delivery, both at campus and at a distance".
- Thissen et al. (2007) advocate "It’s possible to use web conferencing for teaching, because the built functions closely approach face-to-face teaching. They also believe that web conferencing technologies provide rich enough interaction to maintain a sense of community amongst the team members".
- Hambley et al. (2007) discuss that "Although face-to-face communication has been shown to be the richest form of interaction within a team, video conferencing capabilities mimic that ability closely".
- Everett (2007) advocates "Web conferencing is seen as a tool that encourages an interactive and collaborative environment while creating a sense of community".
