Webinars and virtual classrooms provide opportunities for real time interaction between students and teachers.
Short for web-based seminar, a webinar is a presentation, lecture, workshop or seminar that is transmitted over the web using video conferencing software.
A key feature of a webinar is its interactive elements: the ability to give, receive and discuss information in real-time.
A virtual classroom is an online classroom where students interact, access presentations and resources and work in groups.
Examples of webinar and virtual classroom software include Adobe Connect and Blackboard Collaborate.
