Twinning Project -- Video Materials

The idea of interconnecting or twinning Cisco NetAcad Labs originates from Pierre de Fooz (BiASC & HEPL Liege, Belgium) who has created a working prototype and has performed tests with students from Belgium, Sweden and France. Here is the preparation of the video recordings in which the TWINING concept and the TWINNING REMOTE LAB CHALLENGE are explained.

 VIDEO 1 : WHAT IS TWINNING ? 

Question 1 . Can you explain a problem you have identified regarding lab equipment in Cisco Academies ? 

We have had the opportunity to work with Cisco Academies from different countries in the last few years. We are collaborating with academies in Belgium, Sweden, France, Nigeria,... 

We have noticed that there is a huge discrepancy between Cisco Academies having enough lab equipment and academies in need... 

We can roughly estimate that thousands of Cisco Academies are lacking suitable equipment.

TWINNING PROJECT & COMPETITION

Let Cisco Academies students connect to live Cisco Hardware labs for real networking challenges

The Twinning Concept is based on the need for connection services across borders allowing collaboration between Cisco Academies, students and instructors by making possible remote connections with physical (and virtual) lab equipment. The Twinning competition is a co-creation challenge for "Twin Cisco Academy Teams". 

All competition teams will have access to a working prototype so that they can evaluate, use and test the existing connection services. After getting acquainted with the prototype, teams are invited to propose and create additional didactic use cases or connection services.
