In this education technology tweets, I want to add a very important and effective technology for online teaching and learning. The tool is called virtual classroom and you can have a look at the tool at http://www.wiziq.com/virtual_classroom.aspx. They also offer 30-day free trial. More than 150,000 teachers and 2 million learners are already using this.
