Lectures are delivered live, two evenings a week (GMT), using Adobe Connect's online classroom environment which facilitates live delivery of lectures, VoIP for lecturers and students, screen sharing, web cam, file sharing, breakout rooms for group discussions, whiteboard, question and answer sessions and other facilities.
