What is a Webconference:


Online live lectures closely simulate a class meeting. With this approach the speaker can interact with the audience similar to classroom teaching.
 
All participants can hear the speech of the presenter and simultaneously see the slides. If the Computer is equipped with a microphone participants can ask questions or discuss with the other participants. Alternatively, questions can be posed by text chat.
