Videoconferencing

Videoconferencing is a device enabling synchronous audiovisual communication between several people. This means that meetings can be organized with several participants in different locations.
It is unrealistic to expect to conduct a videoconferencing session with more than 25 students, in terms of interaction.
These sessions can be linked, if required, with teaching resources integrated into your Moodle courses.
