Overview of Technology
Many real-time communication
technologies are available. Various options are discussed in the
publication [1].
The basic requirement is
a PC running the Microsoft Windows operating system (Windows 2000 or Windows
XP), a high-speed connection to the Internet, and speakers
/ microphone connected to the system.
The particular software used
for the communication will depend on the application and the accessibility
of the systems behind firewalls, and will have to be determined
for each case.
The following are some of
the software used for the remote teaching sessions:
