WIMBA TOOL SET WEBINAR
The Wimba Tools included in the offer are the following:
Collaboration Suite
The Wimba Collaboration Suite offers a rich array of online
collaborative tools that allow faculty to retain the highly personal and
lively nature of traditional classroom instruction. From voice to video,
from podcasting to content authoring to instant messaging, the
Collaboration Suite works seamlessly within existing online courses so
instructors never need a new user name or password, and never have to
leave their familiar online course environments. The Collaboration
Bundle is a terrific way get take the next step beyond course management
systems such as Angel, Blackboard, Moodle, and WebCT.
Live Classroom
Our fully featured live virtual classroom supporting audio, video,
application sharing, and content display, enables instructors to add
vitally important elements of interaction that simply cannot be provided
in a text-based course. Personalize your online courses by holding live,
online classes, office hours, guest lectures, webcasts, or meetings.
Wimba Audio and Voice Tools
Learn and teach in the most natural way of all - with voice. Facilitate
and promote vocal instruction, collaboration, coaching, and assessment
beyond the traditional language laboratory environment by adding
synchronous and asynchronous vocal collaboration to your course
management system (CMS). Voice Tools include: Threaded Voice Boards,
Embedded Voice Recordings, Voice-enabled Email, Voice Direct (voice
chat), Voice Presentation, and the NEW Wimba Podcaster.
**Pronto Basic
Pronto is a free instant messaging and voice chat tool that allows
students and instructors to spontaneously meet live online at any time
to discuss their coursework. Pronto works with course management systems
like Blackboard and WebCT to automatically populate students’ contact
lists with their classmates’ names, thereby making it easy for students
to spontaneously collaborate live online. After all, not all learning
can be scheduled; it’s often informal and unplanned.
Course Genie
You have Word documents but you can't easily put them online. Now you
can. Quickly and easily convert your Microsoft Word documents into
content for your Blackboard, Moodle, and WebCT courses. From one Word
document you can generate a set of web pages that include navigation and
interactive features that can quickly be uploaded to your course.
