How to Livestream your eLearning Classes amidst Coronavirus pandemic
Amid the circumstances forced upon by the pandemic, online education has become more important in keeping the world moving forward.
The worldwide availability of the Internet and technology of live stream together has opened up many possibilities when it comes to education.
If you happen to have educational content of any sort, you can very well impart education to your students through a streaming platform.
In this blog, we will cover the essentials that you need to consider while choosing a live streaming platform:
1. Proper Equipment: In order to begin with live streaming of your online classroom, you need a set of camera and microphone. You need to ensure that the quality of the broadcast has to match with that of a real classroom. This is a must as you are basically replacing a real classroom with a live stream. It is very easy for students to lose interest if the quality of the stream is not good.
2. Video Encoder: A video encoder is a hardware or device that compresses your video as it gets recorded. The compressed version is required for buffer-free streaming. This also serves the purpose of having a grain-free stream which is a possibility with a weak internet connection.
3. Live streaming platform: The most crucial part of live streaming your eLearning classroom is choosing the right live streaming platform with a reliable content delivery network. With these both in place, you can distribute your live streaming content all over the world without jamming your servers.
4. Stable internet connection: You cannot expect your live stream to go uninterrupted with an unstable internet connection. Your eLearning classes must be livestreamed without any latency issues. And for that to happen, a high quality internet connection (preferably 750Kbps — 2 Mbps) at your end is a must.
5. Monetization support: Choose a live streaming platform that supports multiple monetization formats. Even during the pandemic, live streaming your eLearning classes will ensure you a regular income. You can monetize your eLearning live-stream content based on subscriptions, Pay Per View, or as per any other format that suits your eLearning program.
