Audio conferencing
Using audio conferencing for teaching and student support has a well-established history at Otago.
In the first decades of the University’s distance programme, student attendance at regular audio conferences was mandatory and, with core material being presented at these sessions, students could not otherwise pass their courses.
Many staff find audio conferencing is effective for:
- keeping students motivated and connected, and building a class community;
- giving general feedback on assessments; and
- clarifying key or difficult concepts.
The eConferencing team can provide you with the details you need to get started with audio conferencing.
