Hi David,

 

Take a look at the video on our Hub – this shows Google Hangouts being used for synchronous classroom activities and presentations from Distance Learners.

Dear All,

 

Is anyone using Google Hangouts with their staff and/or students in a corporate, supported way?  Any feedback would we appreciated, especially if you have it integrated into Blackboard in any way.

Regards,

David
