We would love to hear from you if you have used videoconferencing in a different or interesting way. Perhaps you have had to overcome some technical challenges that you'd like to talk about. Or perhaps you have championed videoconferencing at your institution and have been able to save money and enhance teaching and learning.
How do I get involved?
If you have been using Videoconferencing this year in a new and interesting way, why not enter our Videoconferencing Awards.
The categories for this year's awards are:
-
Best collaboration
-
Best demonstration of cost saving
-
Best example of enhancing learning
Who can enter?
The awards are open to schools (primary or secondary), sixth form colleges, FE and HE institutions and content providers.
Register now to attend the VC User Group Event at the National Space Centre, in Leicester.
You can attend in person or remotely via videoconferencing. To register go to the VC User Group Event page at https://www.ja.net/events/vc-user-group
This year, we intend to host the event at the wonderful National Space Centre, Leicester on the 27 November 2012 (http://www.spacecentre.co.uk/). Now in it's 5th year, the event is aimed at HE, FE and schools and includes an award ceremony to celebrate the innovative and collaborative uses of videoconferencing.
As part of the Development Update Tim Boundy asked delegates to take part in a quick poll to prioritise four development areas. Delegates were asked to rank the four options below in order of their preferred priority.
We would like to thank all the presenters, LUST.tv for providing some wonderful crew members and all those who were at the Space Centre or watched the event via VC or Adobe Connect. We all hope you enjoyed the event! If you have any feedback on the venue, stream or presentations, please contact Emma.Smith@ja.net
We will be uploading content from the day shortly!
Thanks again!
