What is a Virtual
Classroom?
An e-learning education system based on
the web that models conventional in-person
education by providing equivalent virtual
access to classes, class content, tests,
homework, grades, assessments, and other
external resources such as academic or
museum website links.
It is also a social space where students and
teacher can interact through threaded
discussions or chat.
