Training for Video-Based Training
NEW YORK --March 6, 2006—Tandberg has two programs that make it easier for educators to learn about, locate and implement the most compelling educational video content for their students.
The new programs provide a turnkey approach to training teachers and supplying exciting content for the classroom while maximizing budgets, according to a company announcement.
“The pressures on educators today are enormous,” said Lance Ford, technology coordinator for Howe Public Schools in rural LeFlore County, Oklahoma. “Optimizing video communication in the classroom has a positive impact on the learning environment and helps to alleviate these pressures, but first educators must meet the challenge of learning how to develop and present content over video.”
The Tandberg Teachers Training Teachers Program, or T4, provides teachers with the skills necessary to effectively teach using video. The program provides both initial and follow-up hands-on training with a train-the-trainer approach. It provides 10 hours of training in four sessions, including one session where participants deliver a lesson of their choice over video. The program also provides a recording of the lesson using streaming video so trainers can see their performance.
The Content Search Portal, developed jointly by Tandberg and the Center for Interactive Learning and Collaboration, enables educators to search for content programs for any topic of study through an online portal. The Content Search Portal provides access to thousands of interactive programs through partnerships with nearly 130 content providers, including museums, science centers and historic sites.
