Elluminate session

We had a class demonstration on the product called elluminate last night. This was a very informative session. elluminate is an online meeting environment with a shared white board and collaboration features. I normally take copious notes for reference but in this case, I just listened and chatted. I understand the tool will record our complete session for later review. How can I listen again to last night’s class to reinforce the lesson? This is a very different experience for me as a student. I am often concerned that I will forget something and concentrate on taking down the data. This is especially the case in my science classes where recalling information for quizzes and tests is integral to success in the course. I like the idea of being able to listen and take in what I am able and then later perhaps listen again. Note taking is part of my learning process and I may try to incorporate the two in this type of environment in the future. This is something I consider when working with my students because some need to see and/or hear and many need to repeat the process to really take in the information and apply the new knowledge. This is a great tool for students who were absent or want/need to join the class from home if they are ill or have a long-term illness. I also feel this offers home schooled students a way to participate without attending the school full-time. The opportunities for including others in the class is a great feature. Thanks so much to Sheryl.
