Distance Learning
Distance Learning can be defined simply as a method of imparting knowledge to students who are not physically co-located with their instructor. Instead, as Wikipedia defines it, "teachers and students may communicate at times of their own choosing by exchanging printed or electronic media, or through technology that allows them to communicate in real time."

Delivery systems for distance learning have evolved from paper mail, audio and video tapes, CD-ROMs and DVDs to the use of today’s sophisticated broadband networks. With the proliferation of rich media and broadband connectivity, use of distance learning has become even more popular and widespread. In the corporate world, a distance learning solution needs to accommodate various needs of the business enterprise such as:

Real time corporate communications across the enterprise
Forwarding of training and other corporate materials in various media formats to desired locations for real time or on-demand viewing
Delivery of ad-hoc streaming video broadcasts to desired locations

Cilutions’ Digital Media Bridge (DMB) is a software-based solution that lends itself very easily to the distance learning environment. Since DMB is platform and transport agnostic, your corporate distance learning network could be a terrestrial, satellite or hybrid network with its remote learning sites running on any Windows or Linux based platforms. In fact, the remote sites could simply be flat panel displays integrated with Amino or Mac Mini set tops.
