The Science Dissemination Unit (SDU) of the Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) in Trieste, Italy, is also offering in 2011 an academic webcasting grant to have an “off-the-shelf” solution for on-line Learning. The aim is to help non-profit institutions from countries that are members of the United Nations, UNESCO or IAEA to implement the automated production of digital scientific content (via, e.g., webinars) and e-Learning and Distance Education (via, e.g., webcasting of lectures).
This year SDU grant provides all USB essentials for implementing a set of the openEyA automated recording system (worth about 200 Euros in hardware each), including USB High-Definition Webcams and omni-directional microphones.
The 2011 openEyA Grant will be awarded to up to four different eligible organizations based in a developing country, and aiming to contribute more efficiently to capacity building and scientific development.
