New tool for tutoring online - WIMBA
This summer at TIDE (Technology Institute for Developmental Ed), Paradise Valley CC demonstrated tutoring online live using Wimba (two way audio) and Blackboard. The tutor used a graphic tablet to write out the math equations as the student talked him through the process. Both could talk back and forth while looking at the problem on the screen.
See an overview of Wimba provided by Xavier Univeristy:
