What Is e-Conferencing?
Using e-conferencing groups can potentially see, hear, text chat, present and share information in a collaborative manner. Two or more people can conduct a meeting over the Internet using e-conferencing technologies to view a shared document, stream audio and/or video, use VoIP, or use a Web-based chat technology. A Presenter can present content over the Internet using a form of slide show presentation, Web-based chat and streaming audio and/or video. Attendees view the presentation by logging into the Web conference, and communicate with the moderator either through their phones or through e-based chat. The Presenter can interact with participants, view attendee lists and manage the communication during the event. This e-conferencing format offers real-time viewing and/or modification of shared documents and files through the Internet. No special software is required for any number of users to view a shared document. Collaboration answers the need for teams in disparate locations to be able to work together simultaneously on a shared document.
Conduct an all-staff meeting with every college in your district, train new hires, launch a new project, communicate with students who aren't on campus, continue meeting with committee members regardless of travel budgets--the possibilities for simplifying the business of education are endless.
The best part of CCC Confer--you don't need to buy any equipment or software and you don't need to invest any money to use it. All you need is your phone, an Internet connection.
