The Adobe Connect video conferencing class was by far the coolest class I had at Rutgers University. During the entire session, I couldn't stop typing "This is awesome!" The Youtube walk through on Adobe Connect made the online software more complicating than it really was. Once I started using Connect, it seemed very straightforward and user friendly. The interactive gesture menu was the most interesting. Raising hands, applauding, and other communication gestures reminded me of the World of Warcraft gestures found in the game.
Of course like all software, it had some shortcomings which I witnessed in person. The biggest shortcoming I noticed was connectivity. There were many connectivity issues that arose during the entire class. While working on the group assignment, Mario had issues staying connected. He would chime in for a few moments, and then get disconnected.
Overall interface was simple to navigate through, but I found it difficult to share my screen. After fiddling with the controls for some time, I gave up and decided to recite my points instead. This was unfortunate.
