Wimba Classroom allows staff to deliver and record any live session to students. It combines Powerpoint, audio and/or video and an online chat area. It is most typically used to deliver an online lecture and discussion. This is ideal for staff on distance or blended learning programmes, but it could be used to create materials or support learning in campus based courses. It could also be used a variety of situations such as holding virtual meetings.
