Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Whether we use synchronous or asynchronous online sessions, whether we call it distance or virtual learning.
A
TRUE
B
FALSE
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Synchronous learning refers to instructors and students gathering at the same time and (virtual or physical) place and interacting in “real-time”. Asynchronous learning refers to students accessing materials at their own pace and interacting with each other over longer periods.

Detailed explanation-2: -Synchronous learning means that although you will be learning from a distance, you will virtually attend a class session each week, at the same time as your instructor and classmates. The class is a firm, weekly time commitment that cannot be rescheduled.

Detailed explanation-3: -Hybrid distance education combines synchronous and asynchronous methods. Students receive deadlines to complete assignments and exams. Then, they work at their own pace. They submit assignments through online forums.

Detailed explanation-4: -However, as opposed to the structured, scheduled nature of real-time synchronous courses, asynchronous classes are more flexible, and learners can complete work largely at their own pace-as long as they meet assignment deadlines. Both styles of distance learning are common, and many courses blend the two styles.
