Higher qualification courses are generally very expensive and eventually many students miss out on doing their courses from the best universities in town.The government must look into the need of the students and must see that they are provided all kind of facilities that is required in case of education.

I have annotated this quite heavily as very interesting.

Benefits of Synchronous and Asynchronous e-Learning Advantages Of Using Both Synchronous and Asynchronous Technologies In An Online Learning Environment. Online learning environments are becoming more frequent in teaching and learning than ever before (Bonk & Zhang, 2006; Er, Özden, & Arifoglu, 2009; Skylar, 2009). Synchronous and asynchronous learning technologies are the two most common online learning types (Hrastinski, 2008; Er et al., 2009; Simonson, Smaldino, Albright, & Zvacek, 2012). The purpose of this article is to discuss the advantages of using both synchronous and asynchronous technologies in an online learning environment. http://elearningindustry.com/benefits-of-synchronous-and-asynchronous-e-learning #elearning #Synchronous #asynchronous #learning #onlinelearning #distancelearning

This was a terrific conference last year, one of the better conferences in the field of online learning, and it happens during the glorious summer months in Madison, WI. Call for Proposals is now open at the link above.

Adult learners value the flexibility and convenience offered to them as online learners, and many learners are required to absent themselves from their online classes during courses in order to accommodate demanding schedules. What factors and tensions contribute to learners' decision-making at these times? This qualitative study considered the planned absences of learners engaged in an online graduate course at a large university. Working within the framework provided by cognitive, instructional, and social presences, findings showed the following: (1) learners understood and accommodated the relationship and importance of the affective domain to their cognitive successes in learning, (2) successful learners demonstrated insightful self-knowledge in using metacognitive strategies, and (3) learners' external support systems were fundamental to their ability to continue to learn when absences occurred. The study's findings corroborate other recent research that similarly stresses the complexity and interrelated nature of the adult learning process.
