Using the two models below I plan to create an e-learning system of videoconferencing. I have never done a videoconference before but I hope to first learn how to do a videoconfernce by requesting a training session with Ron Braxley of the OIT. After that I will collect resources and information about IP videoconferencing and then create a flowchart of what I need to include in my e-learning program.

I chose to do videoconferencing training because it is something I am very interested in. I was very impressed two years ago when I saw a videoconference between American Highschool students and Iraqi high schools students. I thought this type of learning is very crucial to understanding culture and beliefs between two distant students in countries in conflict. Videoconferncing is still not used very much and will keep getting popular as people realize its benefits and technology videoconfernicng technology becomes cheaper.
