If you are interested in teaching via videoconferencing, please visit a new Web site which describes two workshops for teachers and trainers. The Instructional Design Team of Instructional Communications Systems (ICS), University of Wisconsin-Extension has developed these workshops. You can access information about them at: www.uwex.edu/disted/training

"The Orientation Workshop" is for those new to videoconferencing and will help you and your organization acquire basic videoconferencing knowledge and skills. "Creating Interactive Teaching Strategies" is an advanced videoconferencing workshop that will help you and your organization develop in-depth knowledge and skills needed for creating and implementing successful videoconference presentations, programs and courses. Both workshops are designed to be customized to your particular needs and situation.

Other videoconferencing references and links to additional resources are available on the Distance Education Clearinghouse in the Compressed Videoconferencing section located at: www.uwex.edu/disted/compvid.html
