Elluminate Live

Designing a course for Elluminate Live would require meticulous planning. You have to have multiple backups plans in case your technology fails. You would also need a great deal of patience for the variety of technology skill levels of the students, and be patient with their technology hiccups. To piggy back off the skill levels of students, you would need to take into account their performance abilities when you create assignments and tasks for them to complete. Activities to include in Elluminate Live would require every student to be active and engaged with some type of responsibility/accountability. It is easy for a student to get off task on the “Internet”, so I would use grouped assignments. I would take advantage of the Internet and create research assignments while students are grouped, allotting time for researching and then a specified time to discuss what they found (maybe share links on the whiteboard).
