Abstract

In an increasingly interconnected world, it is highly important that professors and researchers alike not only find cost-effective solutions to further their work, but also methods to inspire their students to go beyond the traditional methods. This chapter aims to show a couple of examples of successfully integrating new media features in the teaching and research of new media emphasizing their effectiveness, as well as their innovation, involvement, and surprise factors. Furthermore, the methods suggested are easy-to-use and mostly accessible on a non-fee basis. Additionally, the chapter reviews a series of platforms that allow live video broadcasting such as Yahoo! Messenger, Windows Live Messenger, Skype, Oovoo, Google Talk, PalBee, TokBox, PalTalk, TinyChat, TimZon, VoiceThread, Ustream.tv, and Livestream, giving some examples where they could be used in the daily teaching process. Finally, a call for more cross-cultural teaching and collaborative projects is launched.
