elearnspace: Online Video

And here's another posting by George Siemens. This is a commentary on a business-focused article by the Wharton School of Business. However, you should remember that business drives the technology that we later incorporate into our teaching.

I also thought that this might be interesting in relationship to the experience that Erin and others in the class have had with video projects. The technology and services are changing so much it is difficult to keep up with them. I was pleasantly surprised to see that Google Video provided a script that Erin could use to show her video (stored on Google Video) embedded within her Web page.

It's through discoveries like that that I am as much of a student as anyone in this class. Reciprocal learning is a wonderful thing :)
