Distance learning provides greater educational opportunities by allowing students to learn remotely using online resources. It offers flexibility so students can learn while working or managing other responsibilities. There are both synchronous courses that require simultaneous participation and asynchronous courses that are more self-paced. While distance learning has benefits like lower costs, flexibility, and access to more school choices, it also has drawbacks like lacking social interaction and not being well-suited for all learners or career fields. Adaptability to new technologies is also required.

Blended learning
Blended learning combines traditional in-person classroom learning with online learning. It allows students to learn both in a structured classroom environment with an instructor and through independent online learning. Blended learning accounts for different learning styles and preferences by offering flexibility. It provides benefits like increased engagement, opportunities for personalized learning, lower costs compared to only in-person instruction, and the ability to quickly adopt new learning trends. Common blended learning models include rotations between online and in-person activities, a primarily online model with in-person support, and fully online models with instructor interaction through messaging. Blended learning shifts the teacher's role to a coach and mentor and increases student autonomy, engagement, and opportunities for personalized learning.
Disadvantages of Distance Learning
This document discusses some of the disadvantages of distance learning. It notes that distance learning lacks social interaction found in traditional classrooms. It also says that the online format does not suit all types of learners, especially those who lack motivation or need individual attention. Additionally, some employers may not accept online degrees. The document also mentions that distance learning requires comfort with new technologies, and not all required courses for a degree program may be available online. It closes by pointing out potential distractions in an online environment without in-person accountability, hidden costs, potential issues with faculty and course quality, questionable credibility of some online programs, and lack of networking compared to traditional in-person programs.
Blended Learning in Practice
This document describes four models of blended learning: the Rotation model, where students rotate between online and in-person instruction; the Flex model, where students complete online curricula in a classroom with teacher support; the A La Carte model, where students choose entirely online or in-person courses; and the Enriched Virtual model, where students have limited in-person sessions and complete most work online. It also lists questions to consider when choosing a blended learning model, such as the problem being solved, students' and teachers' roles, and available technology/space.
Types of Online Learning and Classes
Online and distance learning takes different forms but all aim to enhance the learning experience. A fully online course conducts all instruction online with both synchronous sessions requiring students to log on together and asynchronous activities they complete independently. The flipped classroom model has students learn lessons outside of class then do homework and activities in the classroom. A blended or hybrid course combines some traditional in-person sessions with online learning, replacing about 30% or more of face-to-face time with online work.

This document discusses e-learning and its effects on students. It defines e-learning as courses delivered via the internet rather than in a physical classroom. Some key points made include:
- E-learning allows students to learn at their own pace and schedule from any location with internet access. Studies show e-learning students often retain information better than in-person classes.
- Common methods of e-learning delivery include online platforms like Blackboard, Moodle, and Angel that provide course materials, videos, assignments and ways to interact with instructors and classmates.
- To be prepared for e-learning, students must apply and enroll by institution deadlines, which are usually months before classes start. Advance preparation

The document discusses problems with the current state of education in India and proposes online education as a solution. It outlines issues like a lack of college and faculty reviews, limited access to study materials, and no platform for direct interaction between educational institutions and students. The document then describes various models of online education including distance learning, blended learning, e-learning and m-learning. It argues that online education can increase access to expertise, provide more up-to-date content at lower cost, and better prepare students for 21st century business.
Blended learning
Blended learning combines online and in-person learning experiences. It allows students to learn about the same topics both online and in class, with the online and in-person experiences complementing each other. There are various models of blended learning, including the flipped classroom model where instructional content is accessed outside class and class time is used for projects and help. Blended learning has benefits like extending reach, optimizing costs, and allowing students to learn at their own pace, but critics question whether students get enough guidance and supervision without teachers.

Effect of e learning
E-learning involves taking educational courses online rather than in a traditional classroom. It has several benefits, such as the flexibility to learn anywhere at any time and the ability to review material repeatedly. However, e-learning requires self-discipline since students must keep up with scheduled coursework and deadlines. It also involves interacting with other students online through discussion boards. Preparing for e-learning courses requires applying to programs, being aware of enrollment deadlines, and reviewing course demonstrations to understand how online materials and discussions will work.

Is Online the Future of Education?
According to the newest concepts, thanks to the Internet, our work and social life have been radically transformed, as well as have changed our instruction scheme. Technology is now a guiding principle in modern education. Do we forget about the human touch?
Moreover, this progress in technology not only puts an emotional impact on the users who directly have access to information, but also generates countless access to education around the world.
Teaching resources are now reachable virtually to everyone very often for no fee.
Does existing know-how use the human touch or education has just become a technical structure?
Intro to Online Teaching PPT
This document provides an overview of an introductory workshop on online learning. The workshop covers the key elements of online instruction including course design, student engagement, and assessment. It aims to help participants learn best practices in online teaching and develop practical skills in using the learning platform Blackboard. The workshop consists of two sessions: the first involves a presentation and starting a project, while the second is a working session to share and continue assignments and make personal plans.
Online learning
This document discusses online learning and its history and growth. It describes online learning as coursework conducted through electronic forums, discussions, resources, quizzes and assignments delivered via computer and internet. It traces the origins of distance learning through correspondence in the 19th century and use of television in the 1950s. The first fully online courses emerged in 1994. Reasons for the growth of online learning include access, efficiency, stability and cost. The document describes synchronous learning as instant communication, asynchronous learning as store-and-forward without instant feedback, and blended learning as a mix of online and face-to-face learning.
Hybrid Learning
This document presents a case study on using hybrid learning to promote e-learning in Cambodia, Indonesia, and Thailand. It discusses the current state of education in these countries, including language of instruction, number of schools, enrollment rates, and average school ages. It identifies problems with low ICT literacy, internet access, and e-learning usage in higher education. The study aims to promote the hybrid learning concept and analyze factors supporting e-learning utilization. The methodology involves literature reviews, benchmarking, SWOT and PESTEL analyses, and case studies of best practices from Malaysia and Korea.
Effect of e learning
The document discusses the effects of e-learning on students' academic performance. It identifies both disadvantages and advantages of e-learning. Some disadvantages of e-learning include that it can make learning less personal and engaging compared to in-person learning. However, e-learning also provides advantages like allowing students to learn from anywhere with an internet connection and at their own pace. The document also outlines benefits of using e-learning tools for staff training, such as 24/7 accessibility of materials, improved pedagogy through personalized lessons, enhanced collaboration, lower costs compared to traditional training, and appealing more to millennial learners.

Introduction to Online Teaching and Learning
It is important to begin planning online courses early because teaching in the online environment involves principles and practices different from those used in traditional face-to-face instruction. In this online workshop offered 11/11/2013, we ntroduced the unique characteristics of online instruction and provide an overview of the components in an engaging and interactive online course. This workshop was geared toward an audience who is new to online teaching and to those wanting to refresh their knowledge about online teaching fundamentals.
Online education june 2015(3b)
The document discusses online education and compares its benefits and challenges. It provides data showing that most academic leaders see online learning as critical to their long-term strategy and believe its learning outcomes are equivalent to or better than face-to-face instruction. While online education provides benefits like flexibility and convenience, challenges include technology issues, student isolation, and developing engaging online content. Student and instructor feedback reflects both advantages and disadvantages of the online medium. Overall, the presentation concludes that online education's benefits outweigh its challenges for technical communication topics.
Online vs offline classes
The document discusses and compares online and offline classes. Online classes allow flexible learning from any location but can be isolating with less student engagement and higher chances of cheating. They are cheaper with no travel costs but constant screen time poses health risks. Offline classes provide resources, discipline, and competitive debate but require travel time and money. Neither option is perfect as they each have advantages and disadvantages depending on one's needs. In conclusion, the best approach depends on individual circumstances.
effects of e- learning
E-learning is having several effects on higher educational institutions:
1) It is facilitating a more flexible learning approach and helping to combat inflexible organizational structures as technology improves knowledge storage and learning techniques.
2) Universities must have flexible organizational structures to accommodate the changing role of lecturers and more flexible learning environments that e-learning requires.
3) E-learning is being used as a strategic tool to help universities compete in a global market and support strategic objectives like facilitating online discussions.

Elearning week9
This document discusses synchronous and asynchronous e-learning. Synchronous learning occurs in real-time with live instruction, while asynchronous learning allows students to complete coursework independently according to their own schedules. Examples of synchronous learning include video conferencing and live webcasting, while asynchronous methods include email, discussion boards, and web-based training. Both approaches have advantages, such as real-time feedback and discussion for synchronous or flexible self-paced learning for asynchronous. Asynchronous learning requires students to take more responsibility for their own learning by developing technology skills, communicating effectively online, and collaborating with peers. A virtual classroom provides a private online space for teaching and learning that is accessible anywhere at any time.
Online vs Offline classes by Masoom Mandy
This presentation is mainly focused on the topic of Online vs Offline classes.
As the world has advanced towards technology, we live in an era where information can be acquired from any part of the world from any place, any time and from anybody. The newest advancement in technology is the one where education is being transmitted in the form of bits and bytes across the world. A student who can only dream of being a part of a university located in the other part of the world can now stay at home and study the course that the college has to offer.

Sit down & hold on
We were very disappointed by the Academy of Country Music Awards show last Sunday. What a whipsaw year so far. First we were thrilled when four of the nine movies nominated for best picture at the Oscars were specifically about apartment trends in the Puget Sound region. But it was a huge letdown when we saw that none of the country music nominations had anything to do with apartments. Even worse, Toby Keith wasn’t even nominated for his brilliant discussion about Seattle development trends in his song.
Smart Sl As 9.15.09 Combined
The document summarizes a presentation at the 2009 Global Workforce Symposium on service level agreements (SLAs). It discusses how SLAs are increasingly used by procurement and purchasing teams to evaluate service providers. It also outlines some typical challenges in working with SLAs, such as having too many metrics, metrics being too difficult to achieve, metrics being too complicated, and penalties being too expensive. The presentation then provides advice on developing effective SLAs, such as keeping them simple, setting realistic thresholds, and focusing on continuous improvement.

A couple of weeks ago we looked at rent trends for smaller properties compared to larger properties and found some interesting trends that surprised a lot of people. If you want to check it out, the video is called "Sometimes mom-and-pop’s pop." But that video also generated more questions, particularly about sales performance. So here’s a look at sales trends based on property size.

Beautiful but fragile
Forecasts are beautiful things to observe. Okay, maybe not as beautiful as a Chihuly glass garden.
But just as fragile. That’s why the first rule of forecasting is, don’t. And the second rule is, if you must forecast, do it often. We won’t update our forecast for rents, vacancies, net income, development, and price trends until October. But since we’re almost half way through 2014 this is a good time to look at two key factors that will impact our next forecast.

Flexible Learning Environment and Online Resources, Educational Sites and Portals
What is Distance Learning Environment?
Flexible learning is a method of learning where students are given freedom in how, what, when and where they learn. Flexible learning environments address how physical space is used, how students are grouped during learning and how time is used throughout teaching. With space, students may be given dedicated breakout rooms to work collaboratively. Schools may restructure traditional schedules to provide students with time for collaboration and other activities such as guest speakers or performances to assist their understanding of a topic.
Flexible learning refers to the ability to customize one’s pace, place and mode of learning. With pace, for example, students may take accelerated programs or engage in part-time learning to ensure they have time to work on the side. Learning can take place in a variety of settings, including in the classroom, at home via the Internet, while commuting or as part of a work-study program. Mode refers to the way that content is delivered by technology, typically through blended learning, fully online courses or technology-enhanced experiences.

While online programs have significant strengths and offer
unprecedented accessibility to quality education, there are weaknesses
inherent in the use of this medium that can pose potential threats to the
success of any online program. These problems fall into six main categories:
TechnologyEquity and Accessibility to Technology
Before any online program can hope to
succeed, it must have students who are able to access the online learning
environment. Lack of
access whether it be for economical or logistics reasons will exclude
otherwise eligible students from the course. This is a significant
issue in rural
and lower socioeconomic neighborhoods. Furthermore, speaking from an
administrative point of view, if students cannot afford the technology
the institution
employs, they are lost as customers. As far as Internet accessibility
is concerned, it is not universal, and in some areas of the United
States and other countries, Internet access poses a significant cost to
the
user.
Some users pay a fixed monthly rate for their Internet connection, while
others are charged for the time they spend online. If the participants’ time
online is limited by the amount of Internet access they can afford, then
instruction and participation in the online program will not be equitable
for all students in the course. This is a limitation of online programs
that rely on Internet access.Computer Literacy
Both students and facilitators must possess a minimum level
of computer knowledge in order to function successfully in an online environment.
For example, they must be able to use a variety of search engines and be
comfortable navigating on the World Wide Web, as well as be familiar with
Newsgroups, FTP procedures and email. If they do not possess these technology
tools, they will not succeed in an online program; a student or faculty
member who cannot function on the system will drag the entire pro.

Advantages and disadvantages of distance learning
Students can expect to do a lot of reading on their own for distance learning courses. While textbooks may still be required, teachers will provide study guides, reading material, and perhaps a reading list. Distance learning provides opportunities for those who missed out on conventional learning and allows students to choose from a wide variety of schools.
Advantages of distance learning final
Distance learning courses allow students to complete coursework from anywhere with an internet connection, cutting costs of transportation and housing compared to traditional on-campus programs. While distance learning provides scheduling flexibility that makes it easier for working students to earn a degree, it requires high levels of self-motivation and comfort with technology. Some employers and students still prefer the classroom environment for learning.
Distance Learning
Distance learning provides greater educational opportunities by allowing students to learn remotely using online resources. It offers flexibility so students can learn while working or managing other responsibilities. There are both synchronous courses that require simultaneous participation and asynchronous courses that are more self-paced. While distance learning has benefits like lower costs, flexibility, and access to more school choices, it also has drawbacks like lacking social interaction and requiring adaptability to new technologies. Some employers also do not accept online degrees.
Personal Computer as ICT
Personal computers can be used as information and communication technology tools due to their ability to run various programs and access multimedia content. With programs for audio, video, and communication, personal computers allow users at home, in offices, and at schools to both create multimedia and communicate through different media channels. Close to the 21st century, personal computers merged the roles of instructional media and educational communication media by serving as a platform for both creating audio-visual content and sharing it with others.
Advantages of distance learning
Distance learning courses allow students to complete coursework from anywhere with an internet connection, cutting costs of transportation and accommodations. While more flexible for working students, distance learning requires high motivation and self-discipline since there is less direct interaction with instructors and other students. It may also not be a good fit for those who prefer classroom environments or have little experience with technology.

higher thinking skills through IT-based project part 2
The document outlines a seminar lesson plan focused on developing higher-order thinking skills through IT-based projects. The objectives are for students to develop higher-level thinking through four IT projects and to create and decide on their own through developing thinking skills step-by-step. It introduces four types of IT-based projects: resource-based projects where students find their own information to solve problems; and simple creations involving analyzing, synthesizing, and promoting ideas. The document compares traditional and resource-based learning models and ways of traditional learning versus social learning.
Lesson 8: Higher Thinking Skills Through IT Based Projects
The document discusses different approaches to producing self-made multimedia projects, including using tools like PowerPoint for instruction or creating multimedia presentations that combine various media to simulate a news show. While students can create web pages on topics, building full websites may be too sophisticated and time-consuming for most; however, posting pages online allows for a wider audience and linking to other sites.
Lesson 7: IT Higher Thinking Skills and Creativity
This document discusses using computer-based methods to support higher-order thinking skills and creativity in students. It presents a framework of complex thinking skills including focusing, information gathering, analyzing, generating, organizing, imagining, designing, integrating and evaluating. The document advocates for an "upgraded project method" where teachers assign in-depth, complex and real-world projects and students make their own decisions during the process. Examples of projects include resource-based, simple creations, guided hypermedia and web-based. The document emphasizes that developing these skills is important for students' future success and that technology can drive innovation and creativity.
I t2
The document discusses two types of learning: meaningful learning and rote learning. Meaningful learning involves relating new information to prior knowledge through active, intentional, and cooperative processes. It results in a full understanding of concepts. Rote learning involves verbatim memorization without connections to existing knowledge. The document advocates for meaningful learning over rote learning in educational environments.
State of the art
The document discusses trends in adopting state-of-the-art educational technology practices. It notes that educators have become more aware of progressive policies supporting technology in education and are actively adopting new practices. Some of the trends highlighted include students becoming computer literate and using technologies like email and PowerPoint in their work, a shift away from rote learning toward developing critical thinking skills, and the use of student-centered learning models that rely less on teachers and more on student acquisition of knowledge and problem-solving. The document concludes that integrating educational technology into instruction is no longer avoidable for teachers and schools, especially as mobile technologies continue to advance.
I.t. Enters A new Learning Environment(part 2)
The document discusses generative learning and constructivism. It provides examples of generative learning activities like writing paragraphs, developing questions and answers, and drawing pictures. It explains that constructivism involves the learner building their own understanding through appropriate learning activities and environment. The most important principles of constructivism are that learning is what the individual actively assembles themselves rather than receiving passively, and that the role of learning is to help the individual adapt to their personal world.
Educational Technology in the Asia Pacific Region

- 5. Lots of flexibility Learn No while commuting working Numerous Lowered choices for costs schools
- 6. With distance learning courses, students can complete their course work from just about anywhere, provided there’s a computer and internet connection.
- 7. Taking a course online can be one way to cut down on costly gas or public transportation.
- 8. if you live in a community with few or no colleges distance learning allows you to choose from a wide variety of schools to complete your education.
- 9. Prices for online courses are generally cheaper than their on- campus counterparts and you won’t have to worry about commuting, moving or getting meal plans on campus, some additional benefits to learning from home.
- 10. As distance learning can usually be completed on your own schedule, it is much easier to complete distance learning courses while working than more traditional educational programs.
- 11. Lack of social interaction Not all courses Format isn’t required to ideal for all complete the learners degree may be offered online Requires Some adaptability to employers new don’t accept technologies. online degrees
- 12. If the classroom environment is what you love most about learning you may want to take a step back and reconsider distance learning
- 13. If you know you have problems with motivation, procrastination and needs lots of individual attention from an instructor you may want to think long and hard before enrolling in an online learning program.
- 14. While a majority of employers will, there are some who still see a stigma attached to distance learning.
- 15. If you’ve never been one to love working with technology you will probably get a lot less out of an online course than your more tech-savvy counterparts.
- 16. Find out all the requirements of your degree to see what may need to be completed offline.
- 28. Benefits of Distance Education
- 29. Traditionally, the education students received and the career choices available to them have been limited by the educational opportunities near their geographic location.
- 30. Attending a large university or small private college in person does offer many benefits, not the least of which is direct access to its libraries, laboratories, and recreational facilities. While all of these are great incentives, they come with a price, and that price is often not bundled into the tuition.
- 31. People seek out education for a variety of reasons. Most might be looking to achieve a degree or certification, but some are pursuing a hobby or interest and want to spend more time doing something they love. Some students are looking to refresh their knowledge base; others are trying to stay current with the changing world of technology
- 32. At first glance, attending distance learning colleges might seem to be a solitary endeavor, but it really doesn't have to be. One of the benefits of distance learning is interactivity. Students are likely to encounter their fellow students online often. It is easy to stay connected with both students and instructors through email.
- 33. With very few exceptions, becoming a distance learning college student will require the use of new technologies. The days of pen-and-paper correspondence schools are coming to an end. There are still a few mail-away programs conducted through the postal service, but they are for the most part extinct, and often you can find better instruction and more current material online.
- 34. Considering the nontraditional nature of distance learning colleges, it's natural for there to be some skepticism about the effectiveness of such programs. Students are so used to the traditional face-to-face model of teaching that it seems impossible, or at least unlikely, that distance learning can provide the same experience.
- 35. Life's hectic pace makes many claims on a student's time. It can be hard to balance the demands of a career, the needs of a family, and the desire to pursue an education. Students might ideally like to throw themselves full time into a degree program in a traditional educational environment, but that might not always be possible
