| Virtual Campus Build Out: The Virtual Campus is the infrastructure where the actual learning will occur. Your school or organization gains the ability to create a course, workshop, seminar or ad hoc learning arrangement. The Virtual Campus is secure. You control access to your valuable learning content. Each Virtual Campus accommodates numerous courses/workshops/seminars (or any combination). Enjoy a wide assortment of learning tools - discussion forums, live chat, audio, video, AutoQuiz (automatically scores students' exams and records grades), personal journals, RSS feeds, student activity reports, and more. |

| Module Conversion: StarWorks Interactive's content development team is ready and able to transform your content into pedagogically sound, online learning format. Our team can convert your instructional materials into engaging, web-ready content, your images and video into Visual Learning Elements (VLE), and your audio into the portable digital media Podcast format. |
