OCCDLA ETWG – Zoom Pilot
Many Oregon community colleges use video conferencing for delivery of courses, conducting etutoring, offering virtual office hours, student study groups, increasing online instructor presence and other uses. There is shared interest in Oregon higher education to support innovative tools and robust technology for video conferencing in the future.
During Spring 2016 the OCCDLA Emergent Technology Work Group is conducting a technology study. 9 out of 17 of our schools have opted into this pilot through an interest survey. Findings from this pilot will help inform members of the OCCDLA and external statewide interests of the viability of Zoom as a possible future statewide videoconferencing solution.
