How a UW-Madison Professor Used Technology to Expand Course Community - Tammy Kempfert, Teaching with Technology Today
Robert Howard believes his rhetoric students--in fact, all college students--ought to experience speaking before an audience. Moreover, in a course he offers called Rhetoric of Religion, he wanted students to think about how they might communicate the sometimes sensitive issues they study to a larger community, one that reached beyond their classroom. So, with the help of campus technology experts, the UW-Madison assistant professor of communication arts had his students present their final oral reports in front of a television camera. Using streaming media technology, these presentations were made available to anyone with Internet access and a Windows Media Player. As well, the students' audiences would not only see and hear the live presentations online, they would also be able to interact with the presenters via Internet chat.
