Add live eLearning to your asynchronous distance
education programs, with opportunities for real-time
discussion and dynamic interaction. Only Elluminate
Live!® Academic
Edition™ offers an affordable instruction delivery
solution that easily duplicates any learning activity—from
lectures and presentations to small group discussions
and debates.
Elluminate
Live! is powerful but flexible,
providing a customized online experience for every
student. Reach hundreds of students simultaneously—across
campus or around the world. So you can enhance learning
opportunities for all students, while increasing
your reach and your enrollment. You can even develop
online communities and add virtual or blended online/onsite
events like workshops, seminars, and conferences.
What’s more,
Elluminate Live! can also help
you create the classroom of tomorrow—today.
Expand the boundaries of your physical classroom
with remote guest speakers, connect students from
other classrooms for combined lessons, and record
content for students who miss a class or need help
preparing for exams. Present from a tablet PC, load
a presentation template in the whiteboard, engage
today’s “digital generation” who are used to multitasking,
and much more.
With Elluminate
Live! you can attract and
retain qualified instructors and leverage limited
teaching resources. Your instructors can offer virtual
office hours for students and enable real-time tutoring
and mentoring. Provide professional development to
teachers and administrative staff without costly
travel or teleconferencing. And you can increase
the efficiency and effectiveness of your faculty
and staff meetings.
Install Elluminate
Live! on your server or
have it hosted by us. Either way, it's easy to set
up, easy to use, and easy to customize with your
own courseware. What's more, Elluminate
Live! is
just as easy to roll out across the enterprise with
easy integration into your portal, student system,
or LMS/CMS, like Blackboard, eCollege, or Moodle.
Our unique flat-rate pricing makes it extremely affordable.
So you really can do more for less.
