How is eLearning different from traditional in-class learning?
There are several differences, both in a logistical sense, and in a user sense. In a logistical sense, with e-learning, in many cases, there is no need for a classroom, an instructor, and for everyone to be in the same room. An eLearning program can take place all over the globe, either simultaneously, or on individual workstations. In a user sense, E-Learning is a much more personal and user-driven experience. Since each user directs the program at his or her own pace, information is retained because the next step is not taken until the user is ready.
