What
is a Teleclass?
A TeleClass is a conference call, like a chat line.
You and between 10-200 other participants call a regular phone number in
the United States (commonly in Orlando or Las Vegas and is called a ‘bridge
line’) at your class time and you are welcomed by the TeleClass Leader.
A TeleClass is similar to a grad school discussion -- some lecture, some
questions, some discussion. It's highly interactive and the 'flow' works
well. You can listen and absorb and/or engage in the discussion. You can
always ask questions of the TeleClass Leader.
Most TeleClass sessions last an hour. Some meet one time only, others meet
weekly for several sessions, depending on the subject.
You do not need a computer in order to be in the class. All you need is
a regular phone!
The cost to call a bridge line is a standard long distance charge. There
are no conferencing fees, so you would just pay your long distance carrier
whatever your rates are. Most carriers charge $3-6 an hour for long distance,
so the cost is minimal.
Some teleclasses are supported by emailed material that is sent either just
prior to or after the classes for additional consideration or homework if
the class is longer than one session.
TeleClasses can be recorded on RealAudio and posted on a website if a participant
either couldn’t make the class or wants to review the material. TeleClasses
can also be recorded and made available via AudioPodium so that a participant
may make a phone call and listen to a recording of the class if they prefer.
