Whether you like to learn independently or prefer to have face-to-face interaction with your professor, there's an online class that fits your style. KRIS TV recently published an article that discusses the three main types of online classes. Here's a blurb:
“Asynchronous Classes
Some online education programs are asynchronous. This means the instructor's teaching and the students' assignment completion do not happen simultaneously…Synchronous Classes
Online programs can also be synchronous, with the instructor and students all “tuned in” to the class at the same time…Hybrid Programs
Online learning also includes blended or hybrid programs. Blended classes combine online coursework with some on-campus, in-person class time, giving students the advantages of both learning environments.”
Check out the full article for the pros and cons of each online class type.
