** If you after you have entered a classroom you cannot hear any audio, click on the blue telephone icon. A 1300 number and a unique PIN will be displayed. Dial the 1300 number, enter the PIN and you will then be able to hear the tutorial. If you have Broadband, stay logged in as your name will still appear in the student list. You can still participate by clicking on the Yes or No buttons in answer to lecturers questions and you may also click on the had icon to let the lecturer know you have a question to ask. If you have a dial up connection and cannot hear, use the text input box located at the bottom left and ask the Lecturer for a PIN. Dial the 1300 number and enter the PIN the lecturer has given you. You will then be able to participate in the tutorial, but you will not be able to use the Yes/No buttons or the Hand button, of course. PIN numbers are unique to a session and expire when you exit the classroom. Note: If you do not see the phone icon above the chat area, you can still get the simulcast phone number and PIN by entering /phone into the chat area. You will then see a chat message displaying the simulcast number and PIN in the chat area.
