Synchronous Communications

Synchronous communication happens when people exchange information in real-time, meaning they are both actively engaged at the same moment. Examples include face-to-face conversations, phone calls, or instant messaging where responses happen immediately. This method allows for dynamic interaction, quick clarification, and immediate feedback, making conversations more natural and efficient. It contrasts with asynchronous communication, like emails or recorded videos, where responses can be delayed. Synchronous communication is essential when immediate coordination or real-time discussion is needed.
