Rapid paced development in digital and computer technology has brought the computer and its attendant advances into every facet of life. The presence of mobile devices such as tablets to television channels that are now exclusively broadcasting on the internet is in a continuous growth. Our daily life is full of examples of how digital technology can benefit us. One other important place where computer technology is reaping positive results is in education.
Prior to recent innovations, the educational experience could be extremely drab. If you were fortunate enough to have more interactive and exciting ways to learn, it generally was because your school had resources that many others did not. Today, the internet has made learning much more interactive for everyone. This has helped teachers engage with students of all ages.
The new frontier involves bringing the classroom to the student. With streaming video, it’s now possible for classes to be delivered right to your desktop or mobile device. This makes learning much easier and convenient, especially for continuing education students. All that’s really needed is an internet connection, a digital video recorder and TikiLIVE.
TikiLIVE has created comprehensive software and a robust hosting infrastructure that can deliver your engaging and informative high definition digital video content easily and efficiently. We provide a positive viewing experience with no drop-offs in either audio or video quality. Our content delivery network makes sure that your audience experiences no buffering or streaming interruptions. We make the process of streaming digital video seem easy and seamless.
Education Benefits of Streaming Video
• The World Comes to the Classroom – By creating educational and entertaining video content and streaming it online, schools will be able to teach in a much more engaging manner that will help the student to learn and retain the material. Rather than staring at a dusty textbook and memorizing each word, students can learn through the use of high tech visual aids. With visual lessons, students will be much more involved.
• The Classroom Comes to the Student – The virtual world can be the student’s classroom with TikiLIVE distributing your content. This is particularly useful for continuing education students. If you’re creating content for adult students, they’ll be able to come home after a hard day’s work and not worry about going straight to class; they can access your content via the internet on their laptop, mobile device, or Internet Protocol Television.
• Prerecorded Content – You can stream prerecorded content on your broadcast channel with TikiLIVE. You’ll be able to put high quality digital video classes and lectures out on the internet for students. These videos are then available whenever a viewer wishes to access them. Since your broadcast channel can stream 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, you’ll be able to sleep while half a world away someone is viewing your educational content.
• Live Seminars, Events and Workshops – This option allows you to really wow students. In addition to streaming prerecorded content, TikiLIVE software allows you to stream live video. This means you can hold live conferences, workshops, and seminars that will engage your students even further. Celebrity guest lecturers and authors also make a great way to engage viewers who wish to further their education.
