Foil 15 Distributed Tango WebWisdom

From Discussion of Web Certificate Program and WebWisdom Education Web Technology Day -- Mar 11 97. by Geoffrey C. Fox, Nancy McCracken *

1 To allow use on low speed lines (28.8 kbaud modems), distribute CD ROM of material to students
2 Client WebWisdom will map URL sent from Teacher WebWisdom to link on PC (if exists) and so ONLY control information is sent on Web
3 Standard low bit rate codecs support audio and video conferencing over phone lines
4 For asynchronous learning, ship HTML Index with lesson audio to clients and students use offline with TANGO used to support synchronous audio and video conferencing
5 Will use in China (already succesfully used material Spring 96 Semester between Syracuse and Harbin) and for Syracuse University "Limited Residency" continuing programs where students visit University once to three times per semester (see Computing for the Future Certificates)
  • Corporate Programs where we substitute limited residency at Syracuse by University team visiting site where many students can congregate
