| + | E-Learning delivery can be classified as being **synchronous** (occurring in real time) or **asynchronous** (time independent). The flexibility of Internet technology can create some overlap between **synchronous** and **asynchronous** delivery of material. A course might be initially delivered as a real time webcast (synchronous) which is recorded and later made available as a downloadable webcast session (asynchronous). An e-learning course might include a mixture of synchronous and asynchronous elements within its course content. | ||
