Dear MCGers,
I ask your advice, please, on the following subject. I am Curator of the Wordsworth Museum, based in Cumbria, and miles from any centre of population. We have received many offers from lecturers from home and abroad to give online talks to our local community. I envisage a group of people meeting in our education room listening to the lecturer speak from their home or office, and for us to be communicate back with questions and comments. Presumably this could be done with Skype? but would members of the group suggest other, better means of doing this?
i would also like to consider widening participants to this. The previous paragraph describes a two way conversation - how could we SIMPLY widen participation by enabling people at home accessing this through their own computers? One scenario would be everyone joining in the conversation - another would be that those at home could listen to the conversation between Grasmere and speaker but not join in. The latter seems easier to manage and would be acceptable in the first instance.
Hoping you can help. Thank you.
Jeff.
Jeff Cowton
Curator
The Wordsworth Museum, Grasmere.
