Compared to distance learning, elearning is even less
structured. Typically, students work at their own pace
through online courses. There may be pre-recorded lectures,
worksheets, assignments and tests, all viewed and completed online. |

The difference between distance learning and
elearning is a matter of how the course is structured.
Distance learning requires that the student attend classes
at a prearranged time on a regular basis. An instructor who
is actually teaching in another facility (across the state
or across the nation) lectures makes assignments and
teaches just as normal. |

The opportunities for continuing education are incredibly diverse, thanks to the technology of distance learning and
elearning. Because of the sheer number of people who are looking to improve themselves, it was inevitable that a
large number of colleges, universities and businesses set out to fill that need.
The result is that people are learning new skills, honing talents and reaching goals, all while going on with their
lives. For many people, furthering education and attending classes are limited because they are already involved in
their adult lives. Jobs, family obligations and other responsibilities limit the amount of time many people have
available to devote to their own education.

our mobile economy, many people simply don't want to move and don't have the time to travel great distances to attend
classes. That means that their opportunities are limited to the programs that are offered nearby. Until distance
learning and e-learning became so widely available.
