The FlashMeeting Project: an Update
This event took place on Wednesday 01 April 2009 at 11:30

 
Dr. Kevin Quick KMi, The Open University

Flashmeeting is a desktop video conferencing tool developed entirely within KMi and which is now unbelievably nearly 5 years old! During this time it has proved an invaluable tool for many people e.g. for project meetings and particularly EU project meetings, within schools, presentations and collaborative learning/team working activities etc. In addition to the success with clients, the vast quantity of data generated from these meetings has provided a rich source of material for our academic research. Flashmeeting is a continuously developing tool, and many new and powerful features have been added in recent times. The seminar will aim to introduce Flashmeeting to those who may not yet have discovered it, and to further describe and demonstrate some of the newer features that existing users may not be aware of. The seminar will also touch on some of the tool's commercial and research directions.

New Media Systems is...


Our New Media Systems research theme aims to show how new media devices, standards, architectures and concepts can change the nature of learning.

Our work involves the development of short life-cycle working prototypes of innovative technologies or concepts that we believe will influence the future of open learning within a 3-5 year timescale. Each new media concept is built into a working prototype of how the innovation may change a target community. The working prototypes are all available (in some form) from this website.

Our prototypes themselves are not designed solely for traditional Open Learning, but include a remit to show how that innovation can and will change learning at all levels and in all forms; in education, at work and play.
