Hello,
Does anyone here know of a good tool that would allow students who log on to a training webinar to have access to thier own virtual environments to install and configure software applications? I could use VMware for the virtual environments but I don't know how each student would access their own vm. I was intending on using live meeting for the webinar.

Thanks.

Here is a review from a teacher who uses Gogrok as a e-teaching aid:
http://gogrok.blogspot.com/2008/05/gogrok-...for-e-learning.html

As a teacher, Gogrok has helped me a lot on distance learning. When my students have questions on software usage or study subjects, I can easily operate on their computers through Gogrok to show them what to do or to solve their problems. For some class projects like web design, website development, and video editing, I can work through Gogrok with its remote desktop function to show the students the steps they need to know. The greatest part of Gogrok is its real-time interaction. The students can give their feedback to me right away during demonstration so that I am able to offer more detail or further instructions. I has benefited as well from the convenience of Gogrok when I am teaching electromagnetism. The students can now understand the operating procedures through online learning with Gogork. I concluded that Gogrok is a good remote desktop connection tool. It's my perfect teaching aid and makes my classes run smooth. Furthermore, Gogork has made online learning with more possibilities.



hope this will be helpful! :)

Here is a new collaboration freeware for E-Learning called Gogrok (http://www.gogrok.com). It enables users to have remote access capability while calling from Skype. If you are already a Skype user or considering adopting Skype as your E-Learning tool, Gogrok will be a good choice for you.

The difference between Gogrok and other real-time interactive software is its co-edit ability. Gogrok users can share almost any type of applications (word documents, excel, power point slides, web browser, AutoCAD drafts, an installation file for a hardware….etc, you name it!) to the people on their Skype contact list and work on it together. If you select a single file to work on, you and the people you invite will see the same file at the same time. Once you grant the editing right to the guests and then the real-time collaboration starts. If you select to share your desktop to the guests, they will see what you see on your computer screen at the same time.

The real-time co-editing ability makes the leaning process with more accessibility. Most of the remote desktop connection software are not very user-friendly in user interface design. But Gogrok is different because it aims at general users. You don’t have to be a computer geek to know how to operate this software. Gogrok allows you to work, share, or demonstrate on your computer with other people within only a few clicks.

If you want to know more about what Gogrok can do for you, visit Gogrok website: http://www.gogrok.com/ or search “Gogrok” on any search engine.

Hi,

I am currently working on a WBT where the readability of the content is way too difficult to understand and there is too much content on the screens.

Does anyone have any "Best Practices or Guidelines" on how many words should be included on a content screen and how do you determine an appropriate "Reading Level" for users?

Thanks,
MS

Thanks for this thread. I was looking for a professional looking jeapardy game and I was almost going to buy one from a company called Learningware. I thought thiers was kinda of cheesey especially for the price but until I found the company in the the previous thread they where the best I could find. But I have tried a download version of My Quiz Show from C3 Visuals, and was amazed at the ease of use and the look of the game. I have not seen anything like it on the market. I have no ideal on how I missed them in my search. But thanks mcdlt for the heads up.

I found a great resource for immersive learning. There's a company that makes Jeopardy style training games for online or the classroom. their website is www.c3visuals.com They also have a "who wants to be a millionaire" type game. The graphics and sound are way beyond anything else i've seen. i've never had so much fun with my students. it was well worth the money...
