Distance Learning – is a field
of education, with emphasis on teaching methods and technology to provide the
objective of teaching and replace the traditional learning. I believe this is a
good example that it is a successful use of technology on teaching or learning.
In Hong Kong, there are many institutions works together with oversea
universities to release the distance learning to the student absorb local
education and learning cultural. Teacher can provide different service through
e-platform for student. For example: upload / update the latest course material
and information, video conferencing with teacher and student, submit the
assignment, and use of virtual environment for group discuss or sharing
information. Above examples are backed up with online resources for student
access to computer and internet connection at any time. In student view, student
can schedule learning in their personal life. They can study during off-hours or
from home that it can save the money and time for spend on go to school. On the
other hand, student can choose institution for learning in different countries,
without consider regional issues while enjoying their education. Finally,
technology can narrow the gap between the teacher and the students in any time
any where.
