All about Virtual Classrooms and its Features.
ALL ABOUT VIRTUAL CLASSROOMS AND ITS FEATURES VIRTUAL CLASSROOM • A virtual classroom is an online classroom that allows participants to communicate with one another, view presentations or videos, interact with other participants, and engage with resources in work groups.

Mobile accessibility allows your learners greater flexibility in where and how they learn and that benefits you as much as them, because it means they have more opportunities to engage with your materials.

They’re chatting in your forums, teaming up on group projects, and competing for high scores on your leaderboard. In some cases, these experiences are the new defining feature of online courses. INTERACTIVE • One of the defining characteristics distinguishing virtual learning environments from typical classrooms is the flexibility of the way lessons are delivered. In traditional learning, learners sit in a classroom, listening to a lecture and taking notes.

Virtual classrooms offer new ways for educators to deliver inspiring, engrossing, and effective learning content.

At the forefront are Artificial Intelligence and Virtual Reality. While these technologies are still finding their footing, they’re on their way and will find countless applications across learning platforms in the years to come.

MOOC programs like Coursera are a great example of this concept in action. Source: Google Images AFFORDABLE • The low costs of virtual classrooms are considered to be a major advantage. Learners can save money by not having to worry about travel expenses. Participants also save time since all that is needed is an internet connection.

A traditional lecture is an example of this type of learning, and has been used for hundreds of years. Online learning enables this same type of experience, but with far more conveniences and tools.
