Tutoring: A relief for parents

Posted on April 30, 2008 at 1:48am 0 Comments 0 Likes

Not all people in USA earn fat salary cheques, there are many people in USA who fall in lower middle class. They also have duties and commitments towards their children education. The point is they have limitations in terms of money to be spend on children education, keeping their budget tight they have to manage everything. It is comfortable if their child is scoring good grades in school but the problem arises if their child is scoring poor grades and he/she needs tutoring. We, all know the… Continue

Looking at the current educational trend there is a strong demand for tutors in the United States and UK, propelled in part by highly ambitious students aiming for admission into high profile courses and competitive colleges and by others who qualify for publicly funded tutoring because of No Child Left Behind. Some online, offshore companies already provide NCLB tutoring; others say they will apply to states soon.

The big question that arises here is can students learn this way? To me… Continue

Looking at the rapid advancement of technology the world is changing very fast and with it changing the people’s living style and habits.

Second Life would allow you to "meet" with your student, and talk and type and share URLs and text (via notecards). You could stream mov files into SL if that is something you need to do. There are also tools for administering basic assessments and for presenting slide shows in SL. I am not affiliated with a university, so cannot really tell you much about that. I do know that some are using it as the place for holding "traditional class", some professors are using it as office hours, and I have seen some examples of students creating environments or presenting their presentations in-life.

1. You can upload documents to your content library, which can be accessed anytime later from your content manager, in online sessions.
2. All sessions are recorded by default, and these can be accessed using the same URL
3. WiZiQ can not be customised for your own branding. If you are looking for customization or website integration, then you can try authorLIVE, which is the same conferencing software as we use in WiZiQ, but is paid.
