I have to admit I was surprised by how  widespread some of the behavior characteristics are\u2026 I knew that  streaming courses over the web was done, but I didn\u2019t realize how many  students relied on it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Consider that 48 percent of students  said they take multiple classes scheduled for the same time! That\u2019s a  far cry from my college days, when I would painstakingly juggle which  classes to sign up for based on whether I could get from one side of  campus to the other in time. 78 percent of students said that professors  had made courses available online, either live or on demand. What do  you think these students are going to expect of communications when they  enter the workforce? Will they agree to attend multiple product  briefings or team meetings scheduled for the same time because they  figure they can watch the webcast recording later?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.intercall.com\/about-us\/press-releases_100901.php\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Excerpt:<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\nThe survey polled college students ages 18 to 25 about their  attitudes and behaviors towards streamed video content of their college  courses. Additional findings from the survey include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Use of streaming is on the rise<\/strong> \u2014 Eight in ten  students (78 percent) report that professors have made lectures  available either by live video feed or posting a videotaped lecture for  students to access online. Nearly a third (30 percent) say their  professors use web streaming frequently.<\/li>\n<li><strong>In two places at once<\/strong> \u2014 Almost half (48 percent) of  students take multiple classes scheduled for the same time which was  virtually impossible before streaming. Also, 63 percent \u201cattend\u201d classes  even though they are in reality, out of town.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Juggling jobs and studies<\/strong> \u2014 Streaming helps those  students who are working their way through school: 47 percent say having  content available to view at a later time allows them to work more  hours at their job.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Students are taking control over the way they learn<\/strong> \u2014 Nearly 60 percent say streaming video allows them to spend more time  studying by themselves and grasp concepts better because they can go at  their own pace (44 percent).<\/li>\n<li><strong>We want our streaming!<\/strong> \u2014 More than two-thirds (67  percent) of students said they wish more of their professors used  streaming and the majority (85 percent) say they would find it helpful  to have their classes live streamed or video posted online.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Parents just don&#8217;t understand<\/strong> \u2014 A third of U.S.  students say that their parents or guardians would be very upset to know  how often they actually attend classes in person because they &#8220;attend&#8221;  by watching video of their course online. However, the majority of  respondents report that streaming improves students&#8217; performance and  helps them balance school with work.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Web collaboration trends &#8212; from The Webinar blog by Ken Molay Intercall put out a press release today summarizing results from a survey of college students about watching webcast courses.
