Video conferencing is widely used in the corporate world as well as in the
educational realm. The introduction of video conferencing has opened up a host
of options to both companies and educators who require better modes of
communicating that are cost effective and efficient. Large businesses have
adopted this new technology because it allows them to conduct meetings in real
time, keeping key players within a corporation informed at all times.
Furthermore, video conferencing has allowed many businesses to practically
do away with the need to travel for important meetings. It used to be that
large corporations had to fly their top executives around the country to attend
vital meetings with other branches or with clients. The cost of these
jet-setting corporate meetings added up significantly over the course of year,
as executives required airfare, hotel accommodations, transportation, and of
course, meals. With video conferencing, the need for company executives to
travel is almost nonexistent, as key players can debate important topics in
real time, via the Web.
Video Conferencing for Reduced Costs
Many school districts have found video conferencing to be cost effective as
well, as they are able to offer students a variety of classes that would not
otherwise be available. In addition, video conferencing is used extensively for
staff development, as teachers can undergo further job training without ever
having to leave their schools. Both classes and teacher training are carried
out in real time, which provides immediate interactive responses from both
sides.
Students can go on virtual field trips and take part in multi-school
projects, without ever leaving the premises. Video conferencing enriches the
learning experience for students who might not have the opportunity to study
certain subjects otherwise. This is often the case with Honors and AP courses.
