Web- and Video-Conferencing

Web-Conferencing through Breeze and Breeze Live

The University's Macromedia Breeze servers offer a convenient and cost-effective way for you to provide courses and programming to students on multiple campuses. Learn more about the University of Minnesota's Breeze servers.

Breeze is a PowerPoint plug-in that allows you to capture both the audio portion and PowerPoint slides of a live presentation in order to archive it and make it public over a web site. Users can include quizzes and self-tests, and can embed Flash animations and video within a recorded Breeze presentation.

Breeze Live enables faculty and staff to conduct online courses and meetings right from their desktop computers, communicating from multiple points in real time. During an online meeting, presenters in a meeting can display content such as graphics and presentations, broadcast audio and video, interact using chat and whiteboard tools and gather real-time feedback through polls.

Video-Conferencing

Does the cost of travel or lack of time ever stop you from inviting a nationally-known expert to teach in your class? How about the difficulty of including a faculty member from another campus in a meeting, or conducting face-to-face interviews with out-of-town job candidates?

In your classroom, in the Learning Commons, or in a conference room, our video-conferencing services can help you make those important connections.
