4 What is REACT ? REACT is designed for real time synchronous interactive distance learning (IDL) lessons and video conferencing REACT is a multi-party, multi-session, multimedia collaborative software program REACT has loads of multimedia collaborative tools combined into one presentation form REACT does not require expensive infrastructure REACT can be tailored to work over most networks REACT can be tailored to meet client needs Asynchronous is where students access online learning materials at a time that suits them as opposed to synchronous which is done in a real-time classroom situation. Collaborative to get the most interaction and collaboration between participants One presentation form means you don’t have to open and close programs and have numerous windows open – all REACT tools are combined into one presentation form and are accessed by a click of the mouse. We wanted to make REACT affordable and so we designed it to run on everyday computer hardware. The NT has a complicated network using both satellite and terrestrial carriage – supplied by different providers – so we designed the network to us existing carriage services. As the designers and developers of REACT, we can tailor it to meet your needs.
