Expectations for online course support, understood as of 2013/03/08, are:
Only the instructor will be involved; students will only be heard. That implies we don't need more than a single camera. Unless an automatic motion tracking camera is used, we'll assume that a TA (Teaching Assistant for the course) will do camera management [1].
Microphones will be required for the instructor, and the audience. The room is preferably mic'd so that students can be heard from wherever they sit.
Remote students (i.e. watching in realtime) should be able to participate via audio. No provision will be made for telephone participation [2].
Any combination of the instructor and "slides" should be viewable by students. At least projector and laptop output constitutes "slides".
Courses will be live and/or viewed later (typically next day); likely unedited.
It will be done in DC2585.
We will be using Adobe Connect as the classroom/attendee presentation system.
