Features
- Course participants can access the virtual room without signing up on the Sookooroo website.
- Moodle pictures of users who are in the room are displayed both on the course page and in the virtual room.
- Guests can access to the virtual room when the course is open to guests. Guests are assigned unique keys and obtain distinct identities in the virtual room.
