Return To Conferencing Article Archive   Search the Article Archives Teleconferencing - The Bordlerless Classroom By Roy Copeland Teleconferencing has become so simple and so pervasive in daily society that it does not demand a great level of skill to operate. On the contrary, you can be a junior high school student or even medical student or beyond, and it would work just as easy for you. In fact, students from all over the country and around the universe are hosting their own video teleconferencing sessions as we speak, whether its for a school related task or if it is to discuss a business project, etc. These teleconferencing sessions and particularly the telecommunications technology itself has been an enabler of fundamental interaction of the global community on an unprecedented scale. For instance, theres a service called See You See Me, which helps people acquire greater perceptivenesses into what makes another person click. Traditionally if you wanted to work with someone remotely, you would rely mostly on textual communications seasoned with some phone interactions. However more often than not, especially in these kinds of mediums, misinterpretations and all out flame wars in the worst case scenarios have erupted all over the internet. Its very important to have a moderator in these cases to ameliorate and avoid irreparable harm to valuable relationships via these informal communication systems. Schools are now reaching out beyond the schoolroom, and even beyond the school system where students can now 'meet' other students from other zones as well as around the world in every single spoken language and culture. It truly is a very dynamic experience that is sure to break down barriers and misconceptions people may have of one another due to lack of social interaction. Can you imagine in the not-too-distant-future, lesson plans and activities done via a rich medium and public conference which allows students to learn from the best university professors as well as the most eager students who share their same interests? Welcome to the 21st century folks. For those who thought the internet revolution is over... You gotta be kidding me- We have not even started yet.
