Now, educators can explore the collected data and understand the need of the learners. This opens a lot of opportunities for the educators as they can tailor the courses for every learner accordingly.
Interactivity
Interactivity is one of the strongest points of livestreaming, and it can change the future of the education. The current education system doesn’t allow the learners to interact with the educators. However, livestreaming opens tons of options for the learners to follow and interact with the educators. The key here is the use of technology.
As you could have seen until now, some courses offer educational information in an already pre-stored form. Clearly, they are interactive, but not completely interactive. Learners cannot ask any question when the material is taught, and ensure that active learning is taking place. Livestreaming, on the other hand, is offering the most persuasive way of learning.
Premium projects on LiveEdu.tv offer the best example for interactive learning. You can see Awakekat working through the tutorial, “Start to Finish - PSD to WordPress,” giving full attention to both the material and the viewers by answering their doubts through chat and
