INTRODUCTION TO ELLUMINATE LIVE

This tutorial is designed to help you better understand how to use the Elluminate Live classroom. One of the best things you can do is to go into the classroom and “play” with features before class.

Your instructor may have to give you moderator privileges for some things. Speak to him or her about your particular class.

This is the participant whiteboard and work area in Elluminate.

IF YOU CANNOT HEAR OR TALK

Select Tools>Audio>Audio Setup Wizard

Follow directions.

THE TOP ICON BARS

SAVE

PRINT

You can print Current Screen or Selected Screens.

Click here for polling. You might

see “A B CD E” instead of

Click here to share

desktops and applications. More on this

later.

Take notes that are

“aligned” with content of the class

session.

First we will look at the left sidebar.

Raise your hand if you

have a question.

You can also clap from here and smile. Your

“comments” appear in the white space

above.

You can chat by entering text

here, then clicking send. You can send it to the

whole room or to certain people. The moderator

will see all comments. It is best no t to say

anything negative,

especially about the moderators.

To talk, you MUST click on

button. You are “active” if the microphone is

yellow.

Remind me to click

on the little red dot so I

record the session!!!!

CRITICAL

You are a participant. You can tell

because your name is NOT

not Jose either.)

When you are a moderator, you have lots of fun extra things to do.

Tonight, you will upload

your PowerPoint

presentation.

This screen appears after

clicking on the file folder.

Default is OK.

Find and highlight

your presentation. Then, click on

Open.

Again, default value

is fine. Click on OK.

When uploaded,

your presentation will appear.

Navigate and back and forth with arrows. These arrows WILL be grayed out if you are in participant mode. More features later. . .

NOW YOU!
