 Information About Elluminate

Elluminate vClass is a real-time education web tool that is powerful, flexible and easy to use. The virtual classroom enables the delivery of live, online learning, training, and meeting.   Learning is increased by engaging participants with the ability to talk over the internet, chat online, and share applications simultaneously.  Please look below to find instructions on how to access TLT Group's Elluminate classrooms.  If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Lisa Star online@tltgroup.org. 

In order access Elluminate, please follow these directions:

  • First access the Learning Times Network, by clicking on the following link:    http://home.learningtimes.net/tltgroup
  • Once you have accessed this page, click the "Join" button. 
  • The next page will give you two options to choose from.  If you do not have an account on the Learning Times Network, please choose Option A. 
  • Once you have created a username and password, you will be logged in to the TLT Group Online Community Workspace. 
  • Click on “Virtual Offices” to the left of the page.

  • Once you choose the specific Virtual Office being used for your event, find the “Enter Now” button- this will prompt you to download the tool, if you don’t have it in on your pc.

Technical Requirements

Speakers or headphones are needed to hear session audio. A  computer microphone is required for speaking.  To find places that sell PC headsets with Mic attachments, click here. 

The minimum PC requirements are a Pentium II 266 Mhz with 64MB of memory and a sound card. The minimum Mac requirements are a G3 233 Mhz with 64MB of memory when using OS 9.0-9.2 or 128MB of memory when using OS X.

When you log in for the first time, you may be prompted to download Sun Microsystem's Java Web Start (or OpenJNLP for Mac), a pre-requisite to vClass. You only need to do this the first time you use the virtual classroom.

You can test that you are ready to go, by visiting:
http://www.elluminate.com/support/

The screen should tell you whether you have the required software installed.  If you do, you're all set.  If you don't, follow the link to download and install Java Web Start.

We suggest going through the download well before the start of event.
