Synchronous Tools
Included - No Extra Charge!
Educators everywhere are experimenting with synchronous technology to enhance their students' online learning experience. Offering the benefits of convenience, personalised attention, and greater collaboration, synchronous tools add a valuable new learning dimension that goes beyond that of other online tools, such as email. Yet there's been a significant barrier to their adoption - COST.
We're happy to announce that ANGEL 7 introduces an innovative set of synchronous features - at no extra charge! That's right; these features are bundled into the base price of our system so you can experience their benefits.
Enhance communication, interaction & collaboration:
- Support active, peer and personalised learning
- Amplify educator accessibility, maximise efficiency
- Stimulate teamwork, visually communicate difficult concepts
- Avoid the extra costs of communication bundles or services
Virtual Office Hours, an ANGEL Exclusive
ANGEL's Student Queue Manager illustrates the learner's place in line.
Holding virtual office hours with standard LMS 'chat' features can be limiting. ANGEL 7 is the first LMS to offer a feature that models the real-world office hour scenario. Our virtual office includes scheduling capabilities and a queue manager to control student access. Students stay in a visual waiting room until their appointment time, with options to sound an alert and to bring the Virtual Office screen to the forefront to notify them that the instructor is ready. Productivity doesn't suffer while waiting in line - students can work in other applications until their appointment time.
Desktop Sharing
Many educators have told us they admire the desktop sharing features of expensive business services, but that they're price prohibitive. We've included the most sought after features in ANGEL 7 - and they're included in our LMS price! Now you can demonstrate and share any desktop application, such as Microsoft® Suite products or tutorial software provided by textbook publishers. Interact with individuals, groups or teams. Desktop Sharing is a great way to work on projects together. View online users and participate in private conversations as applications are shared.
Facilitate hands-on teaching and learning anytime, anywhere.
Whiteboard
Add another dimension to your classroom with ANGEL's Whiteboard. Augment communication and creativity, illustrate and share imagery and complex concepts with students, teams or the learning community.
Controlled Chat & Instant Messenger
Communicate online in the modes of today's learners - in real time. Participating in peer-to-peer chat reinforces concepts and builds community. It also frequently reduces questions and email to instructors. Use the 'Who's Online' nugget to show who's in your course chat rooms.
