Video display does not perfectly line up with text, and the full screen mode
is not very well explained, however the system is generally accesible, and
the presence of an easy to use size changer in the top left is handy.
From an educational point of view, the system has
potential, and the
technical infrastructure in place is excellent. On a slow
broadband
connection, videos load relatively quickly, however no caching / buffering
is employed.
The presence of a variety of tools for collection and creation of content
are reasonable, however the word processor appears to be rather basic.
The use of an integrated audio recording applet for creation of narrated
audio is also handy, however I did not have a chance to try this out due to
restricted access to the system.
It really needs an in depth review if you're considering it, try contacting
UV for a demo.

Hi Erik,
I haven't been on Wikiversity in quite a while, but this sounds
interesting, so I"ll give it a go.
I found a demo of a video available at
http://www.primaryaccess.org/show.php?id=7.
The system basically offers a simple interface for viewing digital media.
The system features tight integration and a clean, easy to use interface
that assists the distribution and display of the media.

Very interesting:

I would be interested in an evaluation (a brief report about the
strengths/weaknesses), if someone is willing.

Peace & Love,
