Right now I am doing distance education and traditional, so pretty much with the distance learning, I can pause the recording, and jot down a couple of notes if I need to. In a traditional classroom, if you try and stop a teacher too many times, some students will hate you for it. Basically, distance learning requires more discipline as well, so it isn’t easy, but the advantage is convenience. At your convenience you can hit play-stop-rewind.
You can:
1. Learn at your desired pace – slow or fast
2. Get information about the subject that is updated more frequently
3. Participate in discussions and interation with participants belonging to wider range of area, culture and age group.
Also,
4. Interactive/streaming video tutorials may be played back saveral times and their retention is far greater.
5. You have sufficient time and opportunity to look for other related material on the Internet and elsewhere.
6. Variety of course combinations may be made.
7. You (may) become more disciplined and organized.
