EdTech Tool Uses:tinychat is an easy-to-use facility for creating private video conferences. You can have up to 12 participants (cameras) per room, which can be password protected to control access and moderated by a host. You can share your desktop for collaboration with other participants and participate in running text chat. One interesting aspect is that a user can choose to participate in multiple tinychat rooms at once, rather than being restricted to one. tinychat conferences can be recorded and (if desired) embedded in a blog/website/LMS page/etc.
