<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=159055516-22062011>Another question asked
was whether you can get "just the room" I said yes, but in checking some of the
links I realise that the merger with Blackboard and Wimba means it isn't quite
so clear. They say Elluminate <EM>Live!</EM> will be supported until
December 2012 and if you ask for a "free trial" it is Elluminate
<EM>Live!</EM> you are offered not Blackboard Collaborate.... The
room does seem to come with Plan (which I used to have but never really used)
and Publish - which I do have and is what I use to create stand alone recordings
and to create video output which can be edited.</SPAN></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr align=left>There are many help documents and recorded
sessions. The Nottingham room is set up slightly differently to the
standard room so I have made my own explanatory session, though please ignore
mins 1 - 3: when I was making the recording I thought you would be able to see
what I was doing but you can't... the rest should be useful: </DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=159055516-22062011>I am happy for other
departments to use the mathematics room - please just let me know if you want to
organise any meetings in the room (you can "visit" the room any
time). I am not releasing the website for the recordings so you
will have to let me know that you are planning to use the room if you
want access to your recording! </SPAN></DIV>

they let me know when they plan to be in the room. They cannot "damage the

then not possible to have two separate recordings </SPAN><SPAN
