Flexi-learning
Under
SOUL Flexi-learning, instructors and learners are involved
in a new mode of collaborative learning. With the deployment
of Macromedia Flash Communication Server MX, Flexi-learning
integrates audio, video, chat and messaging into a simple
but powerful learning package. Class sessions can be
delivered without the constraint of the physical presence
at the same place. This mode of learning facilitates
two types of class delivery/course events:
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
 |
Recorded
sessions - FlashCast |
| |
Videos or audios prepared by the instructors / filmed
during the class can be posted on SOUL so that learners
can access them anytime. Learners who did not attend
a particular live session can view the recorded
session afterwards. |
| |
| |
|
| |
Real-time
sessions - Virtual Classroom |
| |
Unlike traditional face-to-face teaching model,
class sessions can be conducted while instructors
and learners may not be physically present at the
same place. Only with the Internet connection, presentations,
topic discussions, concept sharing and demonstrations
can be performed flexibly and all can be achieved
at ease. |

|
Basic
features of FlashCast
The basic features that participants may utilise
when they enter FlashCast include: |
| |
Delivery of high quality streamed session videos
with smart indexing
Personal bookmarks for the video session
Instant chat with participants
Resources link repository |
| |
| Under
FlashCast, participants can select the session videos
that they want to view; they can chat with other
online participants to discuss the learning topics
or they can ask questions to their instructors.
Instructors can answer these questions immediately
through the Instant Chat if they are online or when
they login to SOUL System. Both synchronous and
asynchronous communications can be performed. Besides,
instructors can recommend a collection of linked
resources. |

Virtual
Classroom provides a rich environment for conducting highly
effective, interactive online training, meeting and other
collaborative events.
Participants
enter a real-time session where they will be shown with
slides and pictures prepared by the instructors. At
any time of an activity, participants can ask questions
related to the topics, or chat to each other via the
Internet. Instructors will have a view of the participants
whom want to ask questions. Instructors can then answer
their questions instantly one after another. All the
text communications of the Group Chat will be archived
and participants can access them easily for future reference.
Anonymous
survey tool is available for instructors to check the
effectiveness of the session instantly. Questions on
the teaching topics can be posted by instructors; participants'
response will be collected right away and the survey
results will be shown to all in the blink of an eye.
This effectively facilitates the two-way communications
between the instructors and the participants, enabling
the events to be conducted with a success.
