2008“Once we realized how easy it was to actually put a program together, and then make it accessible to alumni, players, coaches, faculty and potential recruits both live and on-demand, we knew we had something special. Mediasite far exceeded our expectations. We use Eagles Site to make the football program important, to promote it in the community and with the alumni and to get people excited about football. Anytime you can do that it’s going to help you win.”

We also can control access very well. It has great reporting tools so we can do outcome analysis to see who's using what and why they're using the material and if its correlated to actual performance changes whether it be staff changes or student performance."

2008"We could now bring the expertise of Johns Hopkins faculty to the world's neediest countries and people and at a significant savings of time and cost. A primary benefit of Mediasite for the center is the ability to provide timely, up-to-date clinical training to health providers. With this technology, poorly funded groups in many global communities that can't afford to lose providers to travel can have the opportunity to be educated in new discoveries and advances in infectious diseases."
Jane McKenzie White
Program director
Johns Hopkins Center for Clinical Global Health Education -
2008"On a monthly basis we take a look at probably anywhere from 6,000 to 8,000 evaluations. More than 99 percent of the respondents are saying to us that they consider video streamed education to be an excellent vehicle to deliver educational content to their staff. The stat that we found most surprising is from the surveys that we conducted of our users. Nearly two-thirds are saying to us that they prefer the convenience, the cost effectiveness of the video streamed seminars to in-person events. So we've had a very positive experience with Mediasite."

Student Impact
-
2009"At first, the idea of being an online student was a little bit scary. After all, I was only used to a traditional classroom setting. However, it didn't take long for me to realize the benefits of an online classroom. Thanks to Mediasite I can now watch my lectures anytime anywhere that I have an Internet connection."

2009"Memphis City Schools is using Mediasite not only as a vehicle to keep our community informed about the district but as an innovative way to reach all stakeholders as we continue to improve and transform our district."
Felicia Fowler
Instructional technology coordinator
Memphis City Schools -
2009"Use of the Mediasite unit on campus has grown here, particularly as we look at providing lectures as homework. Think about it this way. If you're an instructor wouldn't you rather spend classroom time doing thigns that are engaging -- discussions, projects -- and not just providing routine content that can be done through something like Mediasite? So using the Mediasite unit to provide that content is a great benefit that we hope to extend in the future."
Eugene Rutz
Academic director at the College of Engineering
University of Cincinnati -
2008"We have saved over $50,000 dollars in stipend pay and mileage costs in the first two district in-services using Mediasite. It has opened doors for us in several ways to better serve our clients - our children."

Caleb Buhs
Communications representative
Treasury Department for the State of Michigan -
2008"As a small operation with limited staff and contract law judges, we needed a simple and easy way to record the hearings, but also the ability to provide a foundation for webcasting other commission services in the future. Once we had a basic understanding of what we wanted to do, we really came to appreciate that Mediasite came pre-packaged and we wouldn't need specialized people on staff to run it."
