What is a virtual classroom?

A virtual classroom is an online learning environment, which is interactive, and you can access it from the comfort of your own home. You can see and talk live to the course tutors, other participants, ask questions and view slides/video content. The course will be delivered in the virtual classroom in an interactive style; similar in feel to attending a face-to-face workshop. The tutors will lead you through the learning outcomes, providing information, facilitating discussions for the whole group, and managing small breakout groups.
