Electronic Interviews
Parent-teacher interviews are slightly moving more towards electronic organizational services in the same vein as other educational services and functions. This is similar to other trends in education such as blended learning. Where a parent was unable to attend a face-to-face interview at an organised school event, or was unable to see some teachers due to demand, interviews can be carried out over the phone or via common video conferencing systems, like Google Voice or Skype.

Famous quotes containing the words electronic and/or interviews:
“Sometimes, because of its immediacy, television produces a kind of electronic parable. Berlin, for instance, on the day the Wall was opened. Rostropovich was playing his cello by the Wall that no longer cast a shadow, and a million East Berliners were thronging to the West to shop with an allowance given them by West German banks! At that moment the whole world saw how materialism had lost its awesome historic power and become a shopping list.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)
“If the justices would only retire when they have become burdens to the court itself, or when they recognize themselves that their faculties have become impaired, I would grieve sincerely when they passed away, and you would not feel like such a hypocrite as you do when you are going through the formality of sending telegrams of condolence and giving out interviews for propriety’s sake.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
