Watch Out Blackboard - A New Course Management Site is in Town

Here's how they describe themselves:
"WiZiQ puts learners and teachers together regardless of the boundaries and enables live, online teaching for absolutely no cost to the teacher or the student. Learning live in a virtual classroom from a teacher of your choice, we believe, is the next best alternative to face-to-face teaching. Further, with all the "digital" benefits that computers offer us, teachers can explain concepts using 'learning assets' such as images, videos, PowerPoint presentations, documents etc. Unlike face-to-face classes, sessions get recorded so that teachers and students can revisit and even search for a certain topic. Real time interaction in the virtual classroom allows for live feedback from the students making WiZiQ a valuable tool for teachers."Currently, the site allows online teachers to conduct live classes with up to 25 students. WiZiQ also has a lot of potential for virtual tutoring
and group projects. Anyone can conduct an online class, so it's easy to use the program for working with fellow students.Permalink: Watch Out Blackboard - A New Course Management Site is in Town
