Among the tools and services for instructional computing on the EEE server is the “Chat” tool. Chat lets you communicate with your students in real-time over the Internet. Some of the ways Chat might be used in instruction are:
- Hold virtual office hours
- Run Exam review sessions
- Form groups of students and practice writing in a foreign language
More information about the chat tool can be found at http://eee.uci.edu/toolbox/chat/
Using Chat requires a valid UCInetID. You will also need to use a Java-enabled computer to enter a Chat room. This may involve downloading and installing Java on your computer. NACS managed instructional and drop-in labs are already enabled. Contact NACS if you need any help with Java.
