BASICS OF VIDEO, AUDIO AND WEB BASED CONFERENCING

Learning Times is an organization which designs and builds learning programs, communities, and education areas. Its website provides online conferences and online communities for such learning-related programs as universities, colleges, schools, libraries, museums and publishers. With the help of this site, one can reach to another online and meaningful interaction between them becomes possible. When we think that collaboration is an essential part of education, this site presents us exactly this with its applications of three-dimensional conference environment. One can create his or her conference in a way he/she chooses. Another advantage of the site is that it is free. The learning times network is getting larger and larger with such groups as “teaching poetry online”, “professional development for K-12 and college educators”, “tutoring,” and “corporate training”.

WiziQ is a website which passes beyond the boundaries and makes the students and the teachers come together in the same class. It manages this by the way of state-of-the-art virtual classroom. It is free software. Its members are mostly students and teachers who have common interests. The website includes Power points, educational subjects and materials, all of which can be shared, downloaded and uploaded. Participants of a teaching session can be just a single person or a group.

As its name suggest, Illionis video education network provides education through internet, and it is the world’s biggest private network used for education.
