6.Types of distance learning
Distance education as we know it today has evolved greatly from the foundations
of correspondence learning. Students will receive course materials including
textbooks and other course materials via email. These materials and textbooks
allow for complete independent learning at their own pace.
Many correspondence courses are designed to stand the test of time and the abuse
of technology. However, they are quickly being replaced by electronic online
courses. It provides instruction and support from teachers, a multimedia learning
experience, and interaction with other students via various electronic forums.
Thanks to technology, the shift from the traditional classroom experience to online
learning, e-learning, or distance education seems natural. Contrary to what most
people think, there is a big difference between the different types of e-learning.
Distance education has been around for a very long time, but the methods of
implementing it have changed dramatically in the past two decades.
