Pedagogical advantages of live elearning • Teacher and student are separated in space but not in time • The pedagogical structure of the class assembled at a fixed time and for a fixed period is restored • A WWW browser is used as an important delivery medium • Voice contact between the teacher and the students and, at times, between student and teacher is restored • Student study is paced by the virtual classroom sessions

  6. Pedagogical advantages of live elearning • Breakout rooms for small group discussions and web safaris for use of the WWW are available • Communication is managed electronically • Pedagogical features of elearning like video broadcasts, text chat, whiteboards, Power Point type presentations and application sharing are available • Students have the advantages of the flexibility of studying on their own and the social advantages of belonging to a learning group
