Distance Learning, Collaborative Education, and Community Outreach Made Possible with Windows Media and Microsoft Producer
Overview The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) is dedicated to excellence in teaching, research, and service. In 1999, UAH began combining slides and video using Microsoft PowerPoint 2000 as part of a collaborative education project between UAH and the French engineering school, ESTACA. Intending to share engineering knowledge between faculty and students of both institutions using the Internet, the project's planners needed a solution to create and cost-effectively distribute videotaped lectures and engineering information. Windows Media offered an excellent solution for streaming content, but UAH and ESTACA lacked an easy-to-use, rich-media authoring tool. With the release of Microsoft Producer for PowerPoint 2002, many pieces settled into place for a successful collaboration between UAH and ESTACA and for other distance learning projects both on and off the UAH campus.
