As I considered each of these types of video conferencing I realized that my exposure has been quite limited. Most of my family and friends are nearby; therefore, I do not find the need for any type of personal conferencing. I am aware of Skype and have seen it in practice; however, I have never used it. As for Web Conferencing, I have been involved in some training seminars that used Eluminate. I can recall being quite fascinated with the software and value its potential and effectiveness in enhancing a online course. Room based conferencing is used quite frequently at my institutions. Since we have many campuses we often use this technology to facilitate department meetings. I am aware of instances in the institution where this technology is being used  to deliver courses to face-to-face students as a way to replicate the classroom.
