Abstract
The goal of this work was to develop a set of recommendations for the use of videoconferencing in large classrooms. The students' acceptance of synchronous videoconferencing, the role of the instructors as well as the influence of videoconferencing on motivation and interactivity were in the focus of this study. Based on the statements of 178 evaluated students there are three main recommendations that can be made: (1) The didactic approach of the course must concentrate on an more active involvement of the participants. (2) The instructor must be willing to adapt his teaching style to the integration of new media. (3) Technic has to be so perfect, that it guarantees the first two aspects: an undisturbed transmission with possibilities to interact for all participants and support of the instructor to make teaching easy.
