Specifically we are using Langlab from www.elanglab.com where the ability to incorporate short video clips automatically linked to structured lessons seems to be exactly what you need especially as students can progress at their own rate and in their own time. The video does not need to be mega resolution as it can appear as a small window underneath the lesson item. On a practical note we have had 25 students concurrently watching separate video clips with absolutely no issues about bandwidth or latency. We do recommend The GNU vlc media player from http://www.videolan.org.

The communications department is looking for a 20 place computer based lab set up to teach ASL. They have seen the Sanoko 300 from Tandberg and heard about the Sony ASL set up. Seems the real problem maybe the video part. Any reactions, suggestions - on this list or in private are greatly appreciated. Wolfgang Wolfgang E. Adolph Associate_In Fac.
