One Year of ICTP Diploma Courses On-Line Using the Automated EyA Recording System
Canessa, Enrique; Fonda, Carlo; Zennaro, Marco
Computers & Education, v53 n1 p183-188 Aug 2009
The 12-month pre-Ph.D. ICTP Diploma Courses in the fields of Condensed Matter Physics, High Energy Physics, Mathematics, Earth System Physics and Basics Physics have been recorded using the automated, low cost recording system called EyA developed in-house. We discuss the technical details on how these recordings were implemented, together with some web usage statistics and students feedback. As yet, no similar endeavor has been made to put on-line a complete high-level Diploma Programme, due to the high costs involved when using alternative recording solutions. These recordings are freely available on the website www.ictp.tv. (Contains 4 figures.)
