5 Reasons K-12 Desperately Needs Webcasts, Webinars and On-Demand Video

“We will never be able to afford that kind of technology.” "Who's going to learn to run this technology?" "How do we get started?" “People need to get into the same room together for them to really understand this info.” “We can just get on the phone and send the PPT around.” “Once they get my presentation in a webcast, I’ll be replaced.” “Right now we have to find new ways to bring in revenue from outside the district.” Sound familiar? Memphis City Schools thought so. But that didn’t stop them from getting the buy-in to start doing webcasts, webinars and on-demand online video. In just 4 years, they’ve recorded over 500 videos for their district alone. And it all revolved around three simple letters- ROI.
