Collaboration Services

Video Services provides multiple services involving digital media.

Videoconferencing

Videoconferencing uses audio and video to bring people at different sites together for a meeting. This can be as simple as a conversation between two people in private offices (point-to-point) or involve several sites (multi-point) with many people in large rooms. Besides the audio and visual transmission of meeting activities, videoconferencing can also be used to share documents, computer-displayed information, and whiteboards.

Elluminate Web Conferencing

Elluminate is a service that provides online chat/conversation using text and voice (one-to-many, many-to-many). Video interaction can also be integrated. As such, it creates a synchronous, interactive "virtual classroom" for lectures, discussions, and collaboration. However, there are many tools in E-Learning unavailable in Elluminate (e.g. gradebook, learning modules, discussions); so these two systems are complimentary resources.
