Pro's and Con's of Elluminate

I can think of a lot more pro's than con's about my experience with Elluminate. When I first learned of it back in the summer it scared me because it was new and I did not understand it.
After being walked through it and using it for a while I have become more comfortable with it.
It has allowed us to learn from each other and to come together as a group, when we might not
have been able to otherwise. It does seem a bit cold at times without actually being able to see
and be in the same room as each other, but it is the closest thing available. I do not think the white board is all it is cracked up to be, but it serves as a good platform for power point and
other examples of work. Getting knocked off right in the middle of class is a draw back, but
I have always been able to log right back on. I think the technology is great and all I can see is that it will just get better and better. I look forward to Tuesday evenings beacause I always learn something and it is my night for ordering out. I agree with a lot more of the post I have read than disagree. I think for the most part we seem to have all learned and that is what Elluminate was made for, right? It is a great learning tool and it has made it possible and a lot more convenient for the entire class.
