What is Synchronous Instruction?  

In Real Time
Synchronous tools allow learners to collaborate peer-to-peer in real time. Virtual teams from all over the globe can meet quickly to brainstorm, share, and give reports.

Webcasting
Online seminars, called Webcasting, can be moderated. During the session, participants can:

  • "raise their hand" electronically to ask questions,
  • vote on screen,
  • highlight key points,
  • archive sessions, and
  • annotate on screen.
