Ustream! iStream! We All Scream for Ustream!

A classmate presented an application called Ustream to us today. What an effective tool for distance education! The best part of his presentation was when I realized that it was a solution to a problem my Inservice group is having.

Bro. J. is teaching a deaf class this fall at the seminary. He has five students in class and one that will be attending via P3 technology through Dell. It will cost the Church several hundred dollars in order to install the equipment at the seminary building and at the students home. However...

Ustream has the capability to video stream live events and can be recorded and archived for later viewing. All of this is free at http://www.ustream.tv/ If Bro. J. goes for this, all he has to do is make sure his deaf student has access to a broadband speed computer and can participate in class from miles away.
