Researchers also find that attendees of business and medical videoconferences must work harder to interpret information delivered during a conference than they would if they attended face-to-face.
In later years, the project's infrastructure also included a large number of set top videoconference units, as well as several dozen videoconferencing units for conference rooms.
Curators, who are responsible for providing this help, are planned to regularly communicate with teachers and students via computer networks and at videoconferences.
