Web SlideShow: a Virtual Auditorium for Synchronous and Asynchronous Presentations
نویسندگان
چکیده
Tele-conferencing and tele-education are vital for a user-oriented service organization with national scope. The Web SlideShow is a slide support tool designed to provide a remote audience with access to viewgraph presentations. The World-Wide Web (WWW) media has been chosen for its flexibility and multi-platform capabilities. While the tool was at first meant for use in conjunction with standard tele-conferencing systems for live events, the integration of hypermedia notes and audio comments describing the slides opened the possibility of asynchronous presentations. This flexible approach also makes it usable as a tool for virtual classroom and multi-media conference proceeding support. The first experiences have been very encouraging, and the Web SlideShow will now undergo further testing in a true tele-teaching environment.
