21st Century Leaders and Learners:This week our vidcast features my introduction of a new series at www.ncvps.org and www.nclearnandearn.gov to go hand in hand with our GO LIVE! (Getting Organized and Leading Innovation in Virtual Education) approach. The vidcasts from here forward will feature e-stars around the state doing outstanding things in e-learning and e-leadership. Our kickoff star is of course, Governor Beverly Perdue. Look for her vidcast this week at www.ncvps.org. In addition, send us your ideas to be featured on our vidcasts each week with the great e-learning solutions around North Carolina.
1. A reminder to GO LIVE! (Getting Organized and Leading Innovation in Virtual Education) with us on October 29th from 9:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m. and October 30th from 10:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. via the web in Alexander County and/or through a personal RSVP to Bryan Setser by October 28, 2009 via email at bsetser@dpi.state.nc.us.
2. To provide the smooth operation of the Wimba Software, there are certain TCP, HTTP, and UDP Ports that need to be opened on your network. Please provide the list of ports below to your tech staff and ask them to open them for the optimal performance of Wimba Classroom if viewing on your desktop and/or in a district office room.
TCP and HTTP Ports: 80, 5998, 443, 5190
UDP Ports: 5998, 33434 , 5190, 16384
In addition to the setup above, you need to make sure you run the Wimba Setup wizard when first are trying to enter the room. There will be a need to download a java applet when running the wizard and this will just take a few seconds.
If you have questions or concerns about the setup or use of this tool or any other tech issues, please contact Nathan Thanos, our learning management administrator at 919.218.5051.
