New learning modes in the production of presence–distance techniques for education.

• This paper focuses on new learning modes that combine physical and virtual learning spaces and techniques. Synchronous distance technique combined with new dramaturgy and narrative techniques create new learning modes for distance learning. In a series of courses called "Networking Multimedia" students are trained on pedagogical use of video conferencing, integrating several different media tools.The research was based on analysis and evaluation of a large number of video recordings from previous exams and questionnaires among the students. Typical exam projects varied from playing games, give interactive instruction, interactive music performance to virtual marriages, combined ISDN and IP-based videoconferencing and multiple remote control of PCs over the world. During these courses, we have seen that relatively simple techniques can be used for producing programs with a high level of participation and presence – and for the best projects, the technology becomes transparent.
