  • Good job on the video. It would cool to be able to see this in action via a web conference.

    You can bring all of you projects together in a tool like splashcast.

  • Thanks for the suggestion. I'm going to explore further. Cheers, R.

  • Part 2: My answer to Robert's final question:: Until educators are ready to truly embrace democracy in education, will web conferencing exceed the tipping point (i.e. broad use in the classroom). Further, this ought not to be simply a training tool for students so that they fit comfortably into corporate society, but rather, one which fosters critical thinking and problem solving skills, for the betterment of society. Cheers, Adrian

  • I feel further challenged and inspired with these comments. Thank You!

  • Part 2... Maybe it's more like a virtual environment. Maybe a hybrid between Second Life and Guild Wars or WoW--an environment that supports virtual team-building activities and has embedded wiki-esque tools for more than just physical collaboration. Maybe shared mindmapping, too. Just some food for thought.

  • Greg, Thanks for your feedback. I like your thinking. We should connect and explore further. Cheers, R.

  • Nice video...now you can conduct hassle-free and affordable web conferencing meetings with Budget Conferencing!!

  • Nice video Robert; we saw the void and have tried to fill it up with WiZiQ. The first release was in May.

    We are still in Beta and are evolving with feedback from educational technolgists, teachers and students. I discovered your video a couple of days back and I set our video up as a response. Your feedback on WiZiQ would be very valuable.

    Cheers!
