Wimba combines interactive technologies such as voice, video, podcasting, instant messaging, application sharing, polling, and whiteboarding so that students and instructors are empowered with a unique two-way environment that enhances learning, improves outcomes, and increases student retention. It’s a collaboration tool that harnesses the most powerful element of teaching—the human element—so that facial expressions, vocal intonations, hand gesticulation, real-time discussion, creativity and passion can be conveyed in the on-line learning environment.
