The Webstroom Community • Community fostered by SURF • Hybrid between technology, pedagogy and content owners • Aim: to support the effective use of streaming media in higher education • Gather & distribute knowledge amongst HE institutions
Activities and community support • Meetings throughout the year • Website (who’s who, best practices) • Newsletter, discussion list • Active participation in conferences (DIVERSE – SURF education seminar) • Pilot projects 2002-2004
Methods • Start 2002 and 2003 in two rounds with 4 plus 5 projects • Budget K€ 10 – 15 each • Simple rules, bottom up approaches • Outcomes for collective use
Four types of approaches, but always student centered • Problem based (“Canned Problem”) • Competences based • Guided instruction (“Cookbook”) • Multimedia library
Four ways of using Streaming video • Freshly shot (e.g. Innobus) • Existing own VHS tapes digitized (ACTA) • Students filmed themselves (supermarket) • External sources (TV, Image & Sound)
Critical success factors (1) • Small scale • Simple project management • Bottom up approach • Right moment in technological development to start educational experiments
Critical success factors (2) • Cooperation in resources • Setting standards and metadata • Exchange of “good practices” in “webstroom” meetings plus website • Small scale experiment plus coaching facility
The innovative value • Every pilot was first “real” experiment • Used to set standards for institute • Provided casus to motivate teachers to master (some of) the techniques • Triggered thinking about innovative didactical approach
Encountered Problems • Rights: how to deal with it? • Standards: which to choose? • Firewalls… • Version conflicts
Video assets Tools examples and documents People SURFnet Video Portal: integrating content and context
Mirroring the community The building blocks of the community are also represented on the website.

Sound and Vision:streaming cultural heritage into education • A complete service • Legacy material from Sound and Vision • Current affairs material from Public Broadcasters • Flat fees
Webstroom: our roadmap until 2006 • Expand the scope of the community • strengthen ties with ‘ICT in Education’ departments (‘reach the teachers’) and include libraries • Cross fertilization with other SURF communities • IPR Community • Metadata standards Community • New call for proposals December 2004 • International Collaboration • JISC • DIVERSE (5th to 7th July, 2005 Vanderbilt University)
Discussion • Which clarifying questions do you have? • Do you agree that Streaming Video is an underestimated tool in education? • Do you think these projects were helpful in exploring new possibilities? • How do you think the pedagogical examples shown can be disseminated?
