By working with educators to discover, develop, and deliver distance learning technology,
we empower them to fully utilize their technology investments. PCS TelePresence
3D Distance Learning Training employs a blended delivery system that brings together
the power of onsite instruction and the use of distance learning technologies to
deliver training remotely.
Onsite or Via Video
(up to 15 participants) – call for pricing and delivery options
Participants will receive an overview of TelePresence technology and its practical
application in the classroom. Participants will learn about class delivery, collaboration
opportunities, and techniques. Participants will also discover virtual field trips,
and virtual field trip providers and resources. Participants will be introduced
to the various peripherals needed for successful distance learning class delivery
and implementation.
This course will provide:
- Discovery of TelePresence technology applications and peripherals
- Discovery of class delivery examples and opportunities
- Discovery of collaboration opportunities
- Discovery of virtual field trips and providers
Onsite $750 / Via
Video $500 (up to 15 participants)
Participants will develop basic TelePresence skills such as call connection and
disconnection, camera positioning, and switching among input sources (e.g., interactive
white boards, document cameras, DVD players, etc.). In addition, recommendations
on lesson development, incorporating the various technology devices, along with
online course management systems are taught.
This course will provide:
- Development of camera and codec control skills
- Develop camera movement, position, and proximity skills for use with instruction
- Development of switching techniques
- Development of presentation mode skills
Onsite $2,000 /
Via Video $1,500 (up to 15 participants)
Participants will deliver a lesson of their choice over video, using appropriate
peripherals as necessary. Participants will deliver their lessons either individually
or with partners, to another small group and then switch roles. Both groups will
provide immediate feedback to each other.
This course will assist in:
- Delivering a lesson over video using the appropriate peripherals
- Delivering a lesson over video employing the proper techniques learned in previous
3D training
- Delivering constructive feedback to other participants
