How does eCollege Chat or ClassLive work?
eCollege includes two real-time communication tools: the Chat area and ClassLive. Both of these can be found by clicking on the Chat tab at the top of the classroom window. The Chat Tool is a basic, real-time communication tool. The ClassLive tool includes the capabilities of a chat room, but has an additional whiteboard area with graphical tools that allow participants to write, illustrate, walk through problems, and perform several presentation tasks. To learn more details about Chat and ClassLive, at the top of your eCollege classroom click on the Chat tab. For Chat help, click the ?Help button in the top right corner of the classroom. For help with ClassLive, click on the ClassLive button. On the next page that appears you will see a link to a ClassLive tutorial that will provide you with an overview of its capabilities. See the Macintosh FAQ below for information about eCollege Chat and ClassLive on a Macintosh.
