What eduStream can and can't do

eduStream can provide:

  • an audio recording of a lecture, which students can access as many times as they need to during session
  • PowerPoint slides
  • a visual recording from a document camera as the lecturer places books or objects, writes on transparencies or points to diagrams on the camera (some venues only)
  • 24 hour, 7 days a week access for students with the Internet at home
  • access during opening hours for students using the computer labs at Wollongong or the regional Education Access Centres.

eduStream can’t provide:

  • two-way communication
  • synchronous lectures, where students to listen to the lecture at the same time as it is given (eduStream lectures are available later, usually next day)
  • a way of recording what is written on the whiteboard or blackboard (at present).

Many of the facilities not provided by eduStream are available for smaller classes by using video-conferencing. Please contact the CEDIR Audio Visual unit on x 3930 if you are interested in video-conferencing rather than eduStream. eduStream can be used to record videoconferences for post hoc use.
