What is Elluminate?
Elluminate is a real-time (synchronous) virtual classroom environment designed for distance education and collaboration in academic institutions. Elluminate can be used to extend the physical boundaries of a traditional classroom or to add live discussion and dynamic interaction to asynchronous distance learning.
