This week my preceptor introduced me to illuminate. This is a method of communication for students and instructors taking online courses. In getting started each member needs a headset with ear pieces and a microphone. Once the instructor and the student are logged onto the website, the communication can begin. If the computers have a camera available you can turn the camera on and see each person the the circle of communication. This way the instructor could have one on one sessions or sessions with the entire class at once. The school also has a white board available which allows the instructor to draw and write and make available to the students just as they are sitting in class.
I am sure all my terminology is completely wrong with explaining this procedure! I am not very computer savvy. After seeing and learning this new way of communication, I was very impressed! So much more to learn.
