Jesse Fiddler, K-Net's Multi-media Coordinator, spent part of the afternoon in his office meeting with two people located in the library in Rainy River First Nation. He was providing a training session in the use of open source Post Nuke content management software for the development of their community web site.
Using their new IP video conferencing equipment and broadband connection enabled everyone to see and hear each other. But now Jesse is able to use K-Net's new virtual training and meeting platform (Macromedia's Breeze software) to watch what the meeting participants are doing on their computers and provide directions and suggestions for creating their community web site.
Jesse has created an "On-line Helpdesk" link from the First Nations SchoolNet web site that takes users directly to this new resource. Using either the IP phone connection or the video conferencing connection enables users to get the training support required from their desktops.
This new on-line meeting place will be used to host the upcoming virtual International Conference that is happening next week on March 17 and 18. Be sure to join us for this exciting international event.
Brian Walmark, KO's First Nations SchoolNet Special Projects Coordinator is in Six Nations near Brantford at the JC Hill Elementary school for the next two days. He is conducting a web site production workshop in the use of the Post Nuke document management software for the development and maintenance of school web sites.
