Outlier Solutions Inc. Presents at 2006 National Educational Computing...

Outlier Solutions Inc. founder Jed Herzog presented a hands-on workshop at the National Educational Computing Conference (NECC). The course was directed at helping teachers learn the basics of video production and using web video presentation in schools. The workshop focused on how to incorporate video presentation into classroom curriculum as well as how to use video on the web to reinforce lessons. Given the rich content teachers are able to include into a video presentation, and student's8217;s ability to access the information after hours, this format has proven very valuable to the education process.



For more than two decades, NECC has been the premier forum in which to learn, exchange, and survey the field of educational technology. This annual conference -- presented by ISTE and keyed to the National Educational Technology Standards (NETS) -- features hands-on workshops, lecture-format and interactive concurrent sessions, discussions with key industry leaders, and the largest educational technology exhibit in the world. Outlier Solutions,(www.outliersolutions.com) a Portland, Oregon based advertising agency has its roots in the education and life science industries.



's8220;We really enjoy being apart of the education industry and sharing our video production and web marketing expertise with educators and trainers,'s8221; said Jed Herzog. 's8220;My approach is not to teach computer science to teachers, but to help a science or history teacher learn how to create simple videos that can drive home lesson plans, or reinforce previous lessons.'s8221;



During the 7 hour hands-on workshop, teachers learned how to edit, narrate, and package videos using popular software programs. According to Herzog, many schools now offer their classroom teachers web hosting space to post information, serving as a great medium to distribute web presentations.



Today online video is gaining wide popularity, especially with younger audiences. A research study done by comScore networks shows that viewing of online video content increased by 18% from October 2005 to March 2006. 's8220;The advantage with web video presentations is you can include supporting materials, that allow students to access supporting documents as well as the visual material, creating a multimedia learning environment where the student is driving the experience.'s8221;
