Elluminate V-Room
In an Elluminate V-Room online tutoring appointment, the tutor will work with you synchronously (live or at the same time). The CTL will schedule you and a tutor to meet at the same time. The tutor will e-mail you at your UIS email address a link to his/her Elluminate V-room. You will go to the link to join the V-Room session at your appointment time. For the session, you will need:
- View minimum requirements.
- Electronic version of your assignment (preferred)
- Electronic version of the instructions to your assignment (preferred)
- Computer Speakers turned on
- Microphone (optional)
