• Elluminate provides EDU 2.0 collaboration solutions that encompass web conferencing, teleconferencing, videoconferencing, and social networking products and services. With Elluminate, you can create a 21st century teaching and learning environment that increases student retention and results.

What is Elluminate?

• Elluminate uses a program called Java Webstart to initialize the program on your computer. You just need Java on your computer. Free and quickly downloadable if it is not already on your computer (99% have it!)

• No software or licensing is needed by the user.• All you have to do is an audio set-up prior to the

session. You will need a headset with a mic! http://www.elluminate.com/support/index.jsp

• Runs with any Windows version and Mac versions!

How does it work?

Elluminate Changes Learning

• Your jurisdiction may have a firewall setting which does not allow the Java Webstart program to run.

• If this is the case there is easy instructions you can provide your tech department!
