The document compares Net Meeting, mobile learning, and board solutions across several categories. Mobile learning supports the most types of interactions and features like standalone use, multimedia, anytime/anywhere access, while needing a mobile broadband connection that can be costly. Board solutions are in the middle, supporting many interaction types and features but requiring other materials. Net Meeting primarily enables synchronous communication with limited interaction types and features.
