But would be sufficient if at least the key presentations use the live webcast and the rest of them has text-based reporting and discussion or multimedia and audio files available.</p> <p>- I sure will.</p> <p>- Watching/reading, textual online discussion... No problem, but I believe we can have a live webcast of my Workshop. That's what I'd like to discuss more. Is there any chance we can run a test to see if it works? We can also build an website here with pictures, videos, discussions and other things about our on-going project.</p> <p>- I think that it's just fair to charge for virtual participation, but it should be much cheaper. </p> http://www.carfreeportland.org/forum/topic/virtual-conference-attendance-how-should-this-work#post-77 Wed, 13 Feb 2008 15:53:22 +0000 Anonymous 77@http://www.carfreeportland.org/forum/ <p>I am a countywide bicycle and pedestrian coordinator and may have a scheduling conflict that may not allow me the time off from work to attend this conference in person during the week. To answer Elly's initial questions:</p> <p>-A live webcast of the entire conference would definitely be useful to me; with the exception of participating in discussion, I can still benefit from viewing the exchange of perspectives from participants as if I attended in person. Although text-based reporting is great to have (perhaps in addition to the webcast), I would prefer that it not be the primary medium for the virtual conference.</p> <p>-Yes, I can use the internet to follow the conference</p> <p>-I really like the idea of having online discussion; however, it might not be successful unless aren't enough participants; depending on the number of comments received from online participants, there is the question of whether there be a volunteer/staff person to read/filter online comments for presentation to participants in Portland; perhaps consider the option to call in with questions/comments for discussion</p> <p>-Given that the virtual conference is set up in a manner that is straightforward and provides participants with a 'hassle-free' way to keep up with the what has happened at the conference, I would not have a problem with paying a registration fee. The amount I'd think reasonable for virtual registration fee would depend on the setup of the virtual conference. </p> http://www.carfreeportland.org/forum/topic/virtual-conference-attendance-how-should-this-work#post-76 Tue, 22 Jan 2008 14:29:12 +0000 Elly 76@http://www.carfreeportland.org/forum/ <p>Here's an example from Simon Field in the UK of a format he likes from right here in Portland:</p> <p><a href="http://www.cts.pdx.edu/seminars.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.cts.pdx.edu/seminars.htm</a></p> <p>Note the option to stream or download an MP3, plus links to the person's or organization's web site. </p> http://www.carfreeportland.org/forum/topic/virtual-conference-attendance-how-should-this-work#post-75 Tue, 22 Jan 2008 13:21:10 +0000 Elly 75@http://www.carfreeportland.org/forum/ <p>This forum is for people who are unable to attend the conference in person, or who would prefer to attend virtually for environmental reasons. </p> <p>Some questions to get you started; feel free to bring up your own thoughts:</p> <p>- Would a live webcast of the entire conference be useful to you, or would you prefer mostly text-based reporting and discussion, or something in between?</p> <p>- Will you be able to use the internet to follow the conference?</p> <p>- How would you participate? Just by watching/reading? By online discussion?</p> <p>- How much, if anything, would you be willing to pay to participate virtually in the conference?</p> <p>Thanks, Elly </p>
