Questions: Jackie needs to communicate with many people in her department, but it is not necessary for everyone to receive the message at the same time. Which channel is the best tool for her to use? Multiple Choice a conference call a webinar a videoconference an email a phone conversation

The answer is: an email.

Explanation for each option:

1. A conference call: This is a real-time communication tool where multiple participants can join a call simultaneously. It is not suitable for situations where it is not necessary for everyone to receive the message at the same time.

2. A webinar: This is typically used for presentations, lectures, or workshops conducted over the internet in real-time. Like a conference call, it is not ideal for asynchronous communication.

3. A videoconference: This is a live, visual connection between two or more people residing in separate locations for the purpose of communication. It requires participants to be available at the same time, which does not meet the requirement of asynchronous communication.

4. An email: This is an asynchronous communication tool, meaning that the recipient can read and respond to the message at their convenience. It is the best option for Jackie to communicate with many people in her department without the need for everyone to receive the message simultaneously.

5. A phone conversation: This is a synchronous communication tool, suitable for one-on-one or small group conversations in real-time. It is not practical for communicating with many people at different times.
