... channel for communications among members ...
Every time I sign up to mentor a hackerthon, teach an online course, or collaborate on some research, I end up on another one of these platforms. Today it was podio.com for the ZeroCO2 Hackathon. As far as I can tell it is like Slack, but with more tasking features. The hot area for such products is to provide real time video conferencing within the product. So far no one has got it quite right. This is what I would call the synchronization of asynchronous communications. I wrote a series of papers on that but no one had a clue what I was on about, including me . ;-) https://cecs.anu.edu.au/research/student-research-projects/async-sync-learning-system ps: Touching on this in my talk for Canada at 8am Wednesday: https://blog.highereducationwhisperer.com/2020/08/webinar-on-tools-to-engage-students.html -- Tom Worthington, MEd FHEA FACS CP IP3P http://www.tomw.net.au +61(0)419496150 TomW Communications Pty Ltd.
