CarmenConnect is Adobe Connect for the Ohio State University. It is a browser-based internet tool that allows people to participate in a course or meeting without having to travel to a specific location. In this course, we use CarmenConnect to meet online. It can also be used as virtual discussion forum, webinars, office hours and even one-to-one tutoring. If you have never used this tool before, be sure to read through the following tutorial articles.
