Is it possible to manage a real class and a virtual one at the same time?
I'm teaching English and I'm asked to prepare such a thing. If you have any idea, please discuss it here. Thanks!

You will be particularly interested in Ben Stewart's classes. He is using real time applications with university students. He also has developed a lot of tips on the technical and administrative practices to facilitate such blended classes.

Hi George,
Thanks for the quick reply. Do you have any idea about how I can contact this teacher? or does he have any website? or is he a personal friend of yours?

Hello Mohammed and thanks George for the referral. I´d be happy to collaborate with anyone interested in blended learning.

Also Mohammed, you might find yesterday's class on language exchanges of some interest.

Hey Ben, how do yoy create a hyper link in this thing? Maybe you'll give a quick little class?

@ George,

1. Go to this website.

2. On the left-hand side of the screen, scroll down until you find the "HTML Links" link. Clicking this link should take you here.

3. Towards the middle of your screen, you should see the following example (with <> that open and close the code):

a href="http://www.natural-environment.com/blog/">Natural Environment Blog
4. Copy this code and paste it in the text box where you'd like to create the hypertext (again, begin the code with "<" and close it with ">").

5. Change the URL located within the quotation marks just after the "href=".

6. Change the text from "Natural Environment Blog" to whatever you'd like the hypertext to read.

That's it.

Incidentally, here is how you can embed video:

Copy and paste the embed code of your video and using the following tags:

before your embedded code (use "<" before and ">" after the tag): object width="425px" height="360px"
after your embedded code (use "<" before and ">" after the tag): /object
