Taecanet offers Elluminate virtual classroom

At Taecanet, we have an ethos of 'community learning' which is being realised by creating easy links between educators and learners from many different geographical regions worldwide. Networked learning is a valuable medium in the education sphere and its significance will only strengthen with the proliferation of ICT in schools. As many schools now have internet access, the possibilities are endless and it has never been easier to connect learners in order to share knowledge and assist in helping schools to raise standards.

On this theme, we would like to announce that Taecanet will be offering access to a Virtual Classroom facility via 'Elluminate' to our customers from September 2006 onwards. This means that we can offer a virtual class facility for teachers and students to share, making real time collaboration easy. This will allow multiple users to occupy the same learning space, even though they might be in completely different geographical regions. This could have huge implications on the concept of shared learning and will add considerable value to Taecanet as a teaching and learning resource. By using Elluminate through Taecanet you can communicate with others visually, verbally or simply through typing on your keyboard which will allow subject experts to be linked with thousands of students in real time.

If you would like to know more about Elluminate, please visit http://www.elluminate.com/about.jsp where you can access their website.

We are obviously thrilled with this valuable addition to the service and we will be posting more information on this topic in the future.
