the University of Illinois initiated a classroom system based in linked
computer terminals where students could access informational
resources on a particular course while listening to the lectures that
were recorded via some form of remotely device like television or
audio device.

in mainstream education .Several Universities provide distance
learning programs via VC. There are various website sites providing e-
learning via VC concept to the benefit of a large number of students.
