Elluminate

 USING ELLUMINATE

Elluminate is a powerful real-time teaching and collaboration tool that can be used by anyone who has access to the Internet.  No software need be installed on the users' computers.  Broadband access is the optimum connection, but this program also works well with dial-up.

elluminate.com/support contains a number of excellent recorded training sessions on specific tools within Elluminate, as well as written documentation.  Local training for this software will be offered periodically throughout each semester.  For further information about training opportunities, contact  V.J. Hedrick.
