Want your own icon (avatar) while using the chatroom? Please go here first for instructions.
This was their note to me: Please note that this tool is better used asynchronously rather than in real-time. You can try it real-time, but the students will have to "update" their screens themselves, it doesn't automatically update when new comments are entered. Give it a try and let me know if you'd like some other tool. I may be able to help you with other chat tools.
