The short analysis of types of human communication and education is followed by a description of virtual classroom systems in a very basic point of view like what the virtual classroom is and what its usage is and what advantages these systems have. Furthermore, potentialities and supported tools and functions of today’s commercial and also non-commercial products are described including illustrative examples and focus to potential types of network communication implementation. Next section of the thesis presents possibilities of virtual classroom software development as completely web-based application or as desktop application where usage of different programming languages is considered. After that, videoconference as a often used tool in virtual classroom is described and its demands on the ways and types of realization and implementation are stated. The second part of this thesis creates about three quarters of whole document and is dedicated to description of my own realization of virtual classroom system as a built-in-java desktop application communicating across a built-in-java server desktop application. The first section of this part introduces a basic design and concept of the system including its implemented tools for the distant education. The following chapters describe in details each implemented tool and function from the potential user point of view and also developer point of view.
