This paper describes the method of teaching this course via video conference. In this instance, teaching via video conference is markedly different to the techniques employed in distance education. This paper will describe the experience of teaching via video conference as well as some of the perceived shortcomings and pitfalls of being a ‘talking head’.

The results of a student questionnaire and overall learning outcomes will be discussed with reference to University of New South Wales graduate attributes.
