First Elluminate Session:
Today will be the first time I use the illuminate live program. I think I will need to logon an hour or two in advance to get the hang of things. I do have a head set that I bought for Skype a few years ago when I was living overseas. I will try to use the headset but I have been informed they can be frustrating when using illuminate so I may resort to the simple instant messaging function – we will find out!
Elluminate Result:
Unfortunately Elluminate crashed right after a gave an introduction. I thought my computer crashed but then found out through another student’s email that it was in fact Elluminate that crashed. Technology is great but it does sometimes have it flaws. Never the less, Elluminate was resuscitated and recorded. Then thanks to technology I was able to listen to the recorded Elluminate session at my own convenience. Thus, all the course information for the week is available for all to listen to for the first time or to even go back and review, which normal face to face sessions fail to provide. One more reason technology is great even with its flaws.
