K3 Media begins the school year with a new website for ilasallecampus.com

For nearly 10 years now, ilasallecampus.com, which is a member of LaSalle International, has been a leader in the field of web-based distance education, often referred to as "e-learning."

Thanks to the innovative combination of 2 software platforms, which were synchronized by the agency's expert team, the new portal for ilasallecampus.com now offers online courses that offer as many possibilities (if not more!) than being in an actual classroom.

Classes are in real time and interactive. Thanks to the use of webcams and microphones, students can not only see and hear the teacher but also interact with him and with other students. The teacher can control theses interactions by deciding who and when each of them will be permitted to speak, with the simple push of a button. The integration of instant messaging allows students to communicate quickly between each other.

The traditional blackboard is replaced by the "whiteboard", a virtual version of the latter. Thus, each student can view the teacher's computer screen and follow his mouse actions in real time as he goes through a lesson. The whiteboard also permits the display of image files, presentation documents and can even be used as an actual blackboard by using the mouse as a drawing tool. File sharing is also possible. Exercises, homework and lessons are available as tutorials, which can be downloaded from the portal.

Each student has his own online account that allows him access to his personal calendar and also discuss with other students on the forums available for each course. Because each class is recorded and made available online afterwards, students can revise lessons at their convenience. Teachers and administrative staff can independently create new courses, modify schedules, enroll students and even keep a record of attendances.

K3 Media is proud to have contributed to the development of such an innovative project!
