Distance Learning and Public Outreach
The "Multimedia
Generation" relies heavily on sensory
stimuli and social cues to learn. Successful
distance learning programs must utilize
"next generation" teaching techniques
in order to interest and challenge students.
AZ Technology has applied its videoconferencing
and teleoperations experience to Public
Outreach activities like education and business-to-business.
AZ Technology is currently supporting an
educational museum exhibit called "Live
From Space Station". It is a joint
effort to provide real-time scientific data
to schools and the public. The new millennium
has changed the way we educate students
and the general public. Distance Learning
has evolved from "stuffy" on-line
textbooks to exciting real-time scientific
data analysis. Now students can get hands-on
experience by monitoring atmospheric pressures
and temperatures. Learn more about "Live
From Space Station" . AZ Technology
has partnered with TecMasters, Inc., an
industry leader in Department of Defense
training and education, to apply experience
with Internet videoconferencing and remote
data distribution techniques to develop
the "next generation" of distance
learning courses.
Business-to-Business Collaboration
AZ Technology has previously helped Federal/state/local
agencies interact with hundreds of small
businesses throughout the Tennessee Valley
Technology Corridor. Government agencies
instructed small businesses in how to become
involved in programs such as Small Business
Innovative Resesarch. An Internet-based
workshop was created that allowed participants
to view a LIVE panel discussion, via Internet
video streaming, about Tennessee Valley
government programs for small businesses.
The participants could also text chat live
with the workshop panel as well as view
powerpoint presentation documents and streaming
media clips.
