TEDL Components

TEDL components include a variety of technologies. Listed below are some of the main utilities you may encounter.

Course Web Sites
Serving as course home and meeting points for students, course Web sites include links to Syllabus, Readings / Electronic Reserves, Instructional Content, Meeting and Discussion 'rooms.'

Video Stream
Videotaped lectures are available for viewing via your computer. Accessed through course Web site pages, the video streamed lecture can be viewed at your convenience within 24-48 hours following the live lecture.

Video Conference
Join classes live from rural and remote locations via video conferencing (VC). The School of Nursing has two state-of-the-art VC classrooms available for transmission of classes. Students at remote sites can interact with course instructors and classmates in real time.

Web Conference
Web conferencing technology allows you to electronically "sit-in" on a live lecture via your computer and Web browser. While viewing / listening to a class session, you can interact with the instructor in real time via chat rooms, audio, or video.

Videotapes
Videotapes of some class sessions are available in the Health Sciences Library. Under special circumstances, arrangements may be made to have videotapes mailed to you at an additional cost.

Email, Voicemail, Faxing
Communication between you and your instructor may include the use of email, voicemail, US mail, and fax machines.
