The Best in Videoconferencing

Videoconferencing is becoming more and more popular by the day!  So, the number of sites and apps that allow you to conduct a video conference are increasing.  Here are a few of the best sites and apps I've seen that allow you to do just that.

My favorite is a site called LiveMinutes.  The best thing about LiveMinutes (other than the fact that it's FREE) is that it's collaborative.  You can set up and run a webinar in seconds!  Once you share the link you can talk, Skype, draw on a whiteboard, and even share screens.  With Live Minutes, you can upload and collaborate on documents, too.

Another great videoconferencing app is Fring.  Fring allows you to video chat, group video chat with multiple users at once, call for free and even message for FREE! .

A Better Way to Create and Run Assessments

ExamView is a great resource for anyone who already has a SMART Board and a SMART Response system. We usually call them "clickers." You can create assessments in ExamView much easier than you can in the Notebook software. Once you have created an assessment in ExamView, you can actually export it to import it right into SMART Notebook. The screencast below shows you how to export from ExamView and import into SMART Notebook. Check it out!
