Webinar
The weekly introductions on this "learnmoodle" course are good examples of a webinar. The term webinar comes from a combination of web and seminar. As in a seminar there is a degree of interaction in a webinar, even if there are teachers/presenters taking a leading position.
Features of a webinar are...
- that all participants are online,
- there are one or more speakers presenting information
- the"audience" can send in feedback or questions in some form and the presenters therefore interact with the audience
Often a webinar is recorded so that those who couldn't take part "live" can still see the webinar. See also "Adobe Connect".
