HOW DOES IT WORK?

Live streaming allows for viewers to watch and listen to a video feed in real time.

Anyone with an internet connection and a computer, tablet, phone, or mobile device can watch.

Live streaming can be one way (viewers only) or two way (participation from attendees.)

POTENTIAL PROBLEMS…

Live streaming often requires complicated expensive equipment

Also requires trained technical personnel

Viewers with older technology, diff erent operating systems, etc. may have issues

Viewers with slow or poor internet connections may also have issues

Usually reserved for “high profi le” events

WHY BOTHER WITH LIVE STREAMING?

Bring dynamic, engaging content to online and hybrid courses

Allow a remote audience for face-to-face courses

Off er accommodations to students for illness, emergency, inclement weather, etc.

Showcase guest speakers or special presentations
