About the Courseware

• Online courses at KSI are delivered to students through comprehensive courseware which includes written course lecture material presented on the web with streaming video content.

• Each KSI course has a multi-faceted website which contains written, graphic and streaming video materials for each lecture. The streaming video component of each lecture includes a combination of video taken of professors during lectures and videos created by the professor using software which captures computer monitor movements combined with voice audio.

• Students have access to help-desk and technical support via email and direct access to professors via email and telephone as well as personal service from the KSI administrative staff.

• Students have secure, password-only access to courses and course materials and confidential exchange of coursework and grading.

Courseware System Requirements

• The courseware is best viewed using Internet Explorer Version 6.0

• The streaming video files must be viewed using Windows Media Player Version 8.0 or 9.0

• The streaming video files are best viewed over a high-speed Internet connection.

• Some course lectures contain audio only files. These files must be listened to on RealPlayer

• The following additional PC requirements will be effective immediately for the MS Degree Program as well as Certificate Programs: A Webcam that will work with Microsoft NetMeeting chat application available on Windows 98, 98SE, NT4.0, 2000, XP Home, or XP Professional.

• THIS IS INTENDED NOT ONLY TO FURTHER ENSURE EXAM PROCEDURES AS A VITAL PART OF ACADEMIC INTEGRITY BUT ALSO TO ENHANCE THE SENSE OF IMMEDIACY AND PARTICIPATION OF INTERACTION BETWEEN THE FACULTY MEMBER AND STUDENTS LEARNING AT A DISTANCE.

[FYI, a low-end webcam will cost anywhere from $29.99 to $79.99 depending on your personal needs.]
