Using wbsLive
Setting up wbsLive
To get the most out of wbsLive, you'll need to have a headset (headphones and microphone) to listen and talk in the session and a webcam (optional) installed.
To configure your headphones and mircrophone, enter the session and run the Audio Setup Wizard: Tools>Audio>Audio Setup Wizard
The first time you access a wbsLive session you will need to download and install the Blackboard Collaborate Launcher. The Launcher download can be done in advance or just prior to attending a session.

We advise that you close Skype before entering the classroom as this can sometimes cause a problem.
Go to the Technical Support page to check your system requirements.
