Expand Collaboration
The educational experience does not end when a student leaves a classroom; it carries over into hallways, the library, computer lab and common areas.
Wimba Pronto enables students and teachers to uniquely collaborate and learn in an informal “virtual venue,” replicating the exchange of ideas and communication that happens naturally in the hallways, cafeterias, or libraries of a physical campus.
Wimba Pronto also helps schools and institutions meet the requirements of 21st Century learners by delivering campus services, office hours, library services, or tutoring sessions online.
