ONLINE MEETING SPACES

Teachers use shared Meeting Spaces for interactive online experiences.  Live interaction, even over the Internet, is the best way to attend class.  The second best way to participate in the online classroom is to download audio/video tapes of interactive sessions.  Meeting spaces are great for interacting with students, or for team collaboration.

Web conferencing has extensions for mobile computing, so that students can attend from anywhere, at any time, on any Internet-compatible device. Social media, gaming, and clubs can also connect in these meeting spaces.

It is not possible to include every shared meeting space tool on this site.
