something I learned at the Wimba Connect 2009 conference

2009-04-24T11:23:42-05:00

I learned that Wimba has more uses than just for online teaching. It can be used for having people attend seminars and conferences from anywhere in the world. We could use it to provide our Distinguished Lecture Series online to those people who cannot physically attend.

Pronto on Snow Leopard

2009-10-14T09:31:26-05:00

Has anyone else had issues with pronto and the newest Mac OS release (Snow Leopard 10.6)? My pronto opens up and acts like it is going to work and then crashes.

Is it just me or is this an actual issue?

Microphone shuts off

2009-09-30T17:24:52-05:00

When I am using wimba classroom and have the talk button locked down it fluctuates up and down and sometimes in the middle of speaking it goes all the way down and students can’t hear me. Is there anyway of locking this so it doesn’t fluctuate so I can focus on lecturing and not worrying about whether my students can hear me or not.

Thanks,

Matt

Sleeping Ear Plugs

2009-11-10T05:27:20-05:00

Sleep earplugs need to offer a high level of comfort as well as being able to block out the snoring disturbance that causes them to be worn in the first place. At the same time for safety reasons these earplugs need to allow any other sounds, such as that of a fire alarm to be heard.
