Instructional Media
The advent of online video, audio, and podcasts has fundamentally changed the possibilities for eLearning for fully online and blended-learning students.
ShareStream’s Online Video Platform for Education allows educational institutions to operate as state-of-the-art instructional-media organizations to cater to the lifestyles and learning preferences of remote and hybrid learners.
If properly leveraged, rich media has the potential to be a powerful educational equalizer, especially for students who cannot be in the classroom, where access to course media via streaming video, mobile media delivery, and podcasts is the next best thing.
In addition to secure streaming-video services and video management for the full lifecycle of media, ShareStream’s solution for distance learning includes video extensions for LMSs, which allow blended-learning programs to seamlessly extend LMSs with cutting-edge media capabilities.
