SNDT's 'HP Educenter lab' is based on a software solution developed at HP's labs in Bengaluru -- called 'HP Educenter'. 'HP Educenter' provides a solution for capturing, storing, editing and using multimedia in the educational process, made available over LAN to students on an 'on-demand' basis.
The solution runs on a HP server and interworks with a digital library; perform scheduled video capture from TV channels; stream out video and multimedia material to multiple users on a LAN, enabling them to view separate materials, if they so choose; and enable any PC on the LAN to view a TV channel selected by the schedule on the server.
Dr C Krishnamurthy, vice chancellor, SNDT Women's University, Mumbai, said, "'HP Educenter' provides the rights solution to effectively utilise high quality multimedia course content for the benefit of our engineering students who can now easily access the courses online at a time of their convenience."
NPTEL, an association comprising all the seven IITs and IISc, have created multimedia content in engineering and science courses. |
