Abstract: A communications system for traversing multimedia content that can be augmented in stacked windows of information is disclosed. The system includes an interactive graphical user interface operable on a device of a user, wherein the device is in communication with a server to access or provide communicated content, and wherein the graphical user interface generates and an interactive menu of a plurality of types of communication functions from which the user can select, wherein the graphical user interface is responsive to the user. The system iteratively generates new stacked windows as additional selections for more information are made from windows previously generated in the stack.

Abstract: A method and system are described for asynchronous peer or proxy review of video-based responses. A database is provided that includes pointers to video-based speaking prompts, video-based responses associated with the prompts, and scores associated with the responses. A plurality of user participants record responses that are scored by other user participants or proxy scorers, and recorded response scripts are dynamically assigned to a plurality of scorers for scoring such that assignments are distributed to scorers participating in a common event having an event time window. A server is in communication with the database and further in communication with client devices for user participants or proxies. The server provides a web-based graphical user interface enabling user participants to playback prompts and record responses thereto within a response time window and scorers to determine scores for response scripts assigned by the assignments module to the scorer.

Abstract: In one implementation, an asynchronous communications system for distributing communications among selected users whereby those users can generate and distribute new content based upon received communications may include a server for maintaining a plurality of asynchronous communicated content. The communicated content includes a video communication, a transcript synchronized to at least a part of an audio track of the video communication, a distribution list of recipients of the communicated content, and any annotations made to the communicated content. The system further includes an interactive graphical user interface operable on a device of a user. The device is in communication with the server to access communicated content received by the user.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to a two-way data transfer and synchronization system. The data transfer and synchronization system includes a provider system and a customer system. The provider system includes a web service hosted by a web server connected to a computer network and a first database. The customer system includes a client application, connected to the computer network and a second database (e.g., SIS database). The provider system cannot read data from the second database. The client application is configured to send requests to the web service and to receive HTTP responses from the web service. The responses from the web service are executed by the client application so that changes made to the second database are also made to the first database, and vice versa.
