What is Videoconferencing ?
Videoconferencing is an interactive tool that uses video, computing, and communication technologies to allow people in different locations to meet face-to-face and perform most of the same meeting activities they would perform if all participants were in the same room. Participants can be at two locations or many different locations, domestic locations or international locations. In other words, videoconferencing is the process of conducting a conference between two or more people at different locations by using computer networks to transmit audio and video data. This technology can be used to send two-way video and audio over a variety of telecommunications services to facilitate university business meetings, classroom access to outside expertise, and distance learning. Videoconferencing is becoming more popular on college and university campuses and is being used to reach remote students, faculty, researchers, etc to bring them together.
