When we talk about smart classroom we require certain things like computer, internet, video camera, speakers, microphone, projector etc. This technology is also called Virtual Classroom Technology where the teacher can deliver lecture with both the mode like synchronous and asynchronous virtual mode through internet. This paper focuses on the role of virtual classroom software which provides the facility of synchronous and asynchronous virtual mode of teaching. By using this Virtual Classroom Software [VCS], the teacher can not only deliver the lecture but also evaluate the students. This software has several features like live class/online class, offline class, create future class, notice board, assessment, feedback etc. The teacher can use power point presentation/word documents while delivering live lecture.
