The advantages and disadvantages of video conferencing



Video conferencing (also known as a video teleconference) is when two or more people communicate via video and audio telecommunications. Video conferences are beneficial because;

  •  they enable communication and socialisation at the touch of a button
  • it is possible to communicate with people around the world, not just internationally.
  • It is free on some applications such as skype.
  • people cant just see each other, they can also hear one another.
  • video conferencing is beneficial to business calls because everyone can speak even if they cant make it to a meeting.




 
Videoconferencing also has its disadvantages as many people can be harmed through the influence of Internet stalkers;

  • there are many cases in which young children are attacked physically and mentally often by men  who know how to take advantage of young children.
  • many people also argue that video conferencing is not good as such things like eye contact do not occur.
