Have you been FaceTiming with friends and family? It’s different, right? We’ve been FaceTiming with my older daughter in South Korea (gap year), my brother (new baby), and my parents. Where we once made phone calls we now FaceTime. There is something about FaceTime that makes conversations conversational. FaceTime eliminates most of the weirdness of online video conversations. FaceTime starts with a single click. The video and audio always works. The sound is great, and matches the good video feed. How will online education change when synchronous online classes improve to the level of casual FaceTime conversations?
