Video conferencing (synchronous communicative tools) can be used to communicate with learners to solve urgent issues and to accomplish immediate learning. It can be done individually or in a small group. Working individually with a child will make the teacher know a lot more about the child’s strengths and weaknesses. The teacher will know the learning style, preferences and the interest of a child. On the flip side, the teacher interacting with a small group of children will be like guided teaching, where the teacher will be able to let children learn and perform task collaboratively. Not only that, but students can do video conference among themselves to discuss the topic whereby slow learners will also learn from their friends
