Hi people.
I'm trying to figure out my cheapest / easiest (mutually exclusive) path to create a remote learning environment.
It might be patterned after the offering of this company, but not as fancy.

They cost an arm and a leg on a per seminar basis, we can't make any money and use them at the same time.
The goal is to have an instructor sit at his desk and share everything he does, as well as have his voice available. I assume we can split screen / keyboard as the core tech issue, with some chat / feedback mechanism, along with some type of conference call. The conference call does not have to be integrated with the shared screen environment.
Minimal software install on the client end, but I assume a web screen registration that then downloads an applet.
It has to scale support a range of students, up to hundreds, but I assume there will be an initial smaller requirement. Still in discussion.
Got any recomendations? Development local, servers at a big bandwidth colo once we need to scale.
Open source welcome, but paid software is certainly ok if we can afford it.
If you have experience in this, and want to make some consulting dollars, it is a possibility.
Thanks
