Hong Kha and I had the pleasure of testing Google+ Hangout with Dr. Margaret Riel and some of her learning technologies students. Dr. Riel has years of experience using learning circles effectively in online teaching. We volunteered to help her record a demonstration of Google+ Hangout for small group meetings online.
Check out Dr. Riel's write-up and her screencast of the demo session:
