In this webinar, created by a company called Bombora.tv, webinars and live event streaming is being talked about as they explain how people can learn and develop themselves and their skills through online video.
As mentioned before, accessibility plays a key factor in the rise of online learning and this is solely down to the improvement of technology. With the incredible rise of smartphones, laptops and tablets over the last 5 years, people can stream hours of video content whenever and wherever they are.
Online video is something welcomed with open arms by a lot of educational bodies too because this way more and more people are enrolling in online courses further improving their skills and knowledge. One thing education has to contend with in a classroom for example, is attention and time. Time is a key factor to business people in a very busy workplace and lack of attention is combatted with the ability to stop the video and pick up where you left off.
Video is predicted to do even greater things in 2014 and the rise of educational videos like E-learning will continue to show their convenience too.
