I was excited by class this week--this was my first time using Elluminate! and I thought it was brilliant. All of us together, sharing information and meeting, but so far apart geographically. I found too that I have less distractions online--seeing it all happen on my desktop, and participating, was a much deeper learning experience than sitting in a live classroom.
In fact, I showed the librarian at work the class recording, complete with the SHOW SCREEN section (which I thought was exceptionally helpful.) She found the whole thing exciting as well (the college has been looking at Rumba, but E! can only be better!) I think E! fulfills some of the promises of Online Ed--the things that we could see were possible, but that we did not yet have the technology to do.
I wonder if Second Life will be even more exciting!?!

Hi Suzanne,
I am glad you hear about your positive experience with Elluminate. I am going to have to express similar sentiments with you.
Just in case you weren't aware, Elluminate does offer a free 3-seat version called a vRoom. You can use your vRoom for as much as you'd like, and as long as you'd like with no restrictions! You can sign up to receive a free vRoom and continue to connect on a global level by checking out http://getvroom.com.
Good luck and I hope you continue to find Elluminate's services helpful!
