The document discusses the past, present, and future of video conferencing in education. It notes that 5 years ago guidelines were published by the Department for Education to help schools maximize their broadband connections for video conferencing. Currently, experts are using video conferencing in classrooms across the UK to engage students. The future hopes to provide even more opportunities through Janet's video conferencing portal for students to connect live with global experts and companies in all subject areas to enhance learning. Janet aims to work with more content providers to offer reliable, high-quality video conferencing services for education.
