Adobe+Connect



After doing some researcher on different types of "web conferencing" and "web meeting" sites, i discovered a website called Adobe Connect was one of the best forms of "web conferencing" on the internet. I looked at two others sites, Dimdim and Webnex, but i feel the Adobe Connect is far superior. (http://success.adobe.com/en/na/sem/products/connect/1109_6011_connect_webinars.htmlsdid=IEASO&skwcid=TC|22191|adobe%20connect||S|e|5894715262) Adobe Connect works much like many other web conferencing sites, in that it allows users to video chat and connect with multiple users at one time. However, Adobe Connect includes many other benefits, and not just video chat. "It is a web conferencing solution for web meetings, eLearning, and webinars". For web meetings, Adobe Connect provides an office for multiple anytime and anywhere. The greatest purpose that Adobe Connect is used for is eLearning. Adobe Connect for eLearning allows experts and teachers to create and deliver difficult courses, and conduct interactive classes. Adobe Connect also provides compelling online training with Adobe Presenter and Adobe Captivate. Users have the ability to record their video session and manage their course material with a content library. They also have the ability teach, share, and collaborate from and distance at anytime with multiple learners simultaneously. All web conferencing needs are meet. The Adobe Connects provides the same interactivity as a live course does. It is very easy to enroll users in different courses and curriculums and easy for users to control privacy settings. Users can mange participation, asses course effectiveness, and track progress by using Adobe Connect.

Adobe Connect is a great advantage today with all of the recent budget cutbacks and enrollment increases. It offers many advantages of a high-impact conference solution. You can also efficiently track a learner's progress by facilitating test taking and improve learner interactions with a solution that integrates with popular Learning Management Systems.

Adobe Connect now has an application for your mobile device so you can connect with colleagues, partners, customers, or classmates anytime or anywhere. Adobe Connect Mobile allows you to host or attend meetings, join multiuser videoconferences using your device's camera, and share presentations and documents with other attendees. It also will collaborate using text chat and polls. You can check to see who was at the meeting, get notes from the meeting, and view text chat conversations. It will also block certain videos or parts of the meeting for those attendess that do not need to hear everything that is in the meeting. This is a convenient way to have a meeting on the go or attend a meeting with busy schedules.
