Hi guys,<br>
<br>
Anyone here ever teach pd or other FOSS programmes remotely? <br>
Aalex and I are working on a pilot project with two artist-run centres in Canada to see what works best for teaching pd at a distance.<br>
<br>
We have had one in person session with the students (who are mainly
visual artists) and we are now under way with the remote part of it
all.&nbsp; We have set up an irc
channel (#pd-prairies), a mailing list (<a href="mailto:pd-prairies@lists.artengine.ca">pd-prairies@lists.artengine.ca</a>
)and we are having them contribute to a wiki (all of which they seem
relatively to be comfortable with).&nbsp; <br>
<br>
Anyone here ever use any FOSS software to facilitate teaching/ learning at a distance?&nbsp; We turned to skype
for the first remote session but obviously ran into issues with the we
visual side of things (we ended up sounding like robots when the web
cam was in use so in the end we only used voice...collective blind
patching is an interesting experience ;-)<br>
<br>
We will be writing a report at the end of the project for those of you who are interested.<br>
<br>
Kindly,<br>
<br>
