What’s a webinar?
In short, a webinar is a live conference web meeting. What makes it appealing is the visual and audio aspects of the meeting. The presenters can use their desktop to show examples and give lessons. The microphone makes it easy to explain and discus topics. There’s other features like webcams, whiteboards, Q&A, polls, and more. It’s an easy and fun way to learn.
