While there are certainly situations in which synchronous learning is preferred, there are other situations in which it would not work. Our organization provides "close-to-need" education to personnel around the world; it would not be feasible to attemtp to get tham all together at the same time. For us, asynchronous education is essential.
Gilbert,
Agreed. The push for anytime, anywhere learning does make synchronous impossible. It has to fit your delivery objective.

Thanks Anita!
Convenience is key and sometimes the only approach for many students today. I even see the future where synchronous is almost unheard of even in traditional schools. Asynchronous delivery is the future and has been shown to be successful!
Thanks,
Cynthia
cynthia,
I find it interesting how people will say that students can't learn when research shows differently. You've given a something to think about.
