ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Webinar

A webinar is like a special online class that you can join from your computer or tablet.

Imagine you are going to a class, but instead of going to a real classroom, you stay at your house and sit in front of your computer. You can see and hear the teacher who is also on their computer.

During the webinar, the teacher talks about a topic that they know a lot about. They might show pictures or videos on the screen so you can understand better.

You can also ask the teacher questions by typing them in a special chat box. The teacher might answer your question right away or answer it later.

Usually, webinars are recorded, so you can watch them later if you missed the live class. It's like watching your favorite TV show on Netflix, but it's a special class just for you.
