Integrating Lecture Recordings with Social Networks

This paper describes an approach to integrate lecture recordings, based on the virtPresenter framework, within social networks. A lot of social networks have recently begun to provide application programming interfaces (APIs) for external applications, allowing access to userspsila profile information and their friendship relations. The project ldquosocial virtPresenterrdquo combines the resulting social graph with the existing lecture recordings. Thus, ldquosocial virtPresenterrdquo provides a basis for a new collaborative multimedia learning process.
