Online Classes
How they are taught Mostly taught in a lecture room
Camera in back of the room records lecture
Certain percentage of students won’t be live but will be remote
(Tape delayed) ~12-24 hour later viewing
Usually working professionals
This means there are two levels of interaction
“Live” = in class and “Online” = remote and tape delayed
School uses Blackboard at its CMS (every school pretty much does)
Its ok for what it does – but it doesn’t know that AJAX exists and POSTs everything!
School recently opened a beta testing of Collaborate (like WebEx)
