			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.miniaelearn.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/images.jpg"><img src="http://www.miniaelearn.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/images-150x150.jpg" alt="" title="images" width="150" height="150" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-51" /></a><br />
According to statistics, there are over 4 million students who are enrolled in online schools and universities, and the number is just increasing every year. What?s the draw with online education? Why is it that many people opt for this method of learning? What are the benefits?</p>
<p>Online schooling allows the students to make it to their class anytime and anywhere. Many parents find this convenient because it gives them the chance to look after their children in the process. As long as there?s a stable internet connection, working and traveling students need not to worry about showing up in an actual university because they?re at liberty to choose when and where to engage in a learning discussion with the teachers and professors.</p>
<p>Online studies also allow for the teaching methods to be more focused on individual students. Since everyone has their own pace, online learning can adapt better to suit their situation and needs than a standard classroom setup. Some people learn more through application of their skills, while others get a better grasp of a lesson by seeing it in front of them.</p>
<p><span id="more-50"></span></p>
<p>Next benefit if online learning is the easy accessibility of course materials. In a regular classroom set-up, students normally forget lectures during class hours because of various distractions and stress. This can be avoided in online education because students can read and review discussions and lessons at their own spare time.</p>
<p>In an online school, all students are encouraged to actively participate in the discussions and voice their opinions. This is way better than a regular classroom arrangement wherein not everyone gets the chance to recite.</p>
<p>Online teachers have practical knowledge and can come from any location in the world. This gives students the opportunity to learn things that cannot be found in books and discover how class lessons can be applied in real life situations.</p>
<p>It?s important to people in the business community for the students to be able to further their knowledge and skills. Distance learning can offer afford this through the use of the Internet to attend class, communicate with other peers and research information.</p>
<p>Because of the anonymity that online instruction brings, biases and prejudice typically caused by gender, age, race, popularity and seating arrangement can be avoided. Students also have more time to ponder their answers and add their comments whenever they?re ready. This is different from a traditional classroom wherein one needs to have the precise timing to answer, otherwise the discussion could have already moved on to other things before the student has the chance to remark.</p>
<p>Finally, in an online school, teachers are generally more amicable and approachable. With the help of online chats, conferences and emails, students can openly share their thoughts with their instructors. This is much more practical because there?s no need to set for an appointment beforehand. In effect, this allows more time for interaction between students and teacher to further the learning process. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.miniaelearn.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/images7.jpeg"><img src="http://www.miniaelearn.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/images7-150x150.jpg" alt="" title="images" width="150" height="150" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-48" /></a><br />
Some might be wondering why tradesmen and professionals alike might choose to go to online schools, rather than a real college. There are currently more than four million students that are enrolled in one online collegiate program or another, with the number growing as each year passes. This is largely because there are a number of advantages inherent to online learning.</p>
<p>The core advantage is that students are able to log-in and attend their classes at any given time. This means that busy parents can look after their children while attending a class. Professionals can go do their course work during their free time, without having to forcibly free up room in their schedules. Those who travel a lot have the benefit of not having to miss out on a lecture or class because of their travel patterns, provided they have access to the Internet.</p>
<p>Online learning also allows for student centered teaching methods. Each student has a unique way of learning that best suits them. Some learn visually while others improve when they learn by doing.</p>
<p>A second advantage is the accessibility of the course material &#8211; with an Internet connection and a computer, the student can get to the references and materials whenever they need to. This allows for an incredible amount of flexibility in reviewing and reading lectures and other materials. It also helps them turn back and catch up on previously covered materials if they need to.</p>
<p><span id="more-47"></span></p>
<p>In an online school, all students are encouraged to actively participate in the discussions and voice their opinions. This is way better than a regular classroom arrangement wherein not everyone gets the chance to recite.</p>
<p>Instructors in online schools may come from any part of the world, regardless of race or culture. This provides a chance for the learners to understand even real life lessons that cannot be found and taught in books.</p>
<p>Through constant use of the internet to attend class, research information and communicate with other peers, students are able to hone their skills in utilizing technologies that will be essential to people in the business community. This is because business people need to constantly work with colleagues across the globe.</p>
<p>It is also easier to participate in class discussion online than in the classroom. Anonymity gives everyone a fair chance and removes bias caused by seating arrangement, popularity, gender, race and age. Students also have enough time to think about their answers and opinions and add their comments when they?re ready. In a tradition classroom, one has to have the proper timing in order to answer or voice an opinion and the discussion could have already gone past the point where the student has the opportunity to comment.</p>
<p>Finally, online schools tend to have professors and instructors that are much more approachable. Students are more open with sharing their opinions through online communication media and discussions. Professors are also easier to get in touch with. This allows for more opportunities for students and teachers to interact and exchange ideas. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.miniaelearn.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/images6.jpeg"><img src="http://www.miniaelearn.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/images6-150x150.jpg" alt="" title="images" width="150" height="150" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-44" /></a><br />
An increasing trend among stay-at-home moms is the desire to get ready for entering or re-entering the workforce through online schools. An online college education the chance to take individual online courses on your schedule without wasting considerable time commuting and waiting for classes to start.</p>
<p>Many established brick and mortar schools have offered the occasional online course, but there are a growing number of online schools that permit you to take all of your classes in the virtual online college environment. The online school makes it easier for stay-at-home moms to get an online college education and additional skills needed in order to reenter the workforce as soon as the time is correct for the family.</p>
<p>Online college courses are taught by professors who&#8217;re committed to supplying the same education in their online course, as the traditional student receives in the traditional classroom. An online college is accredited by a recognized accrediting group. When online colleges are accredited and meet government standards they can provide financial aid from the federal government. This permits the online school the ability to get you prepared for a new job, without the financial burden of needing to pay for online college courses from your current budget.</p>
<p><span id="more-42"></span></p>
<p>Taking an online course doesn&#8217;t mean that you are not going to study nor do writing assignments, but it surely gives you added flexibility to fit your online classes into your schedule. The online classroom mandates that you be able to communicate with your instructor a certain amount of time, and give classroom type feedback by taking part in chat room discussions or bulletin board postings.</p>
<p>Online education courses offer you the ability to pursue, and train for the career which you dream of without feeling that you&#8217;re neglecting other areas of your life. The online programs allow you to learn at your own speed, and at times that are convenient for you, instead of tailored to anyone&#8217;s time schedule but your own.</p>
<p>Another potential advantage that you have in taking online courses is way better professor access. As an alternative to hoping to get a question answered in a crowded class or making time to see the professor during their work hours, you can just e-mail them and you will receive a return e-mail response. Also you don&#8217;t have to be embarrassed by asking the professor for more details, which is all too often the situation in classroom environments. In some instances the professor will ask that all questions be posted on the classroom bulletin board, so that all students may have the same information.</p>
<p>Classroom lectures are prerecorded for live streaming or download. This feature will let you stop, pause or rewind the lecture. You don&#8217;t have to fret that you missed a critical detail, when you were taking notes. Another advantage is that you can view the video many times or you can observe them spanning a handful of computer sessions. The lectures suit your schedule, and you are not locked into being required to schedule a given time period, but you will have to be capable of meeting scheduled due dates.</p>
<p>A few of the notable colleges that offer online degrees include Saint Leo University, Kaplan University, Everest University, Colorado Technical University, Ashford and America Intercontinental University. These colleges are all accredited and also have financial aid opportunities. All of these college are private for profit, aside from Saint Leo University which is a private not for profit university. These colleges all have conventional campuses in addition to their online courses.</p>
<p>Time management techniques is a crucial skill needed by the online student. Being able to establish goals and meet class due dates is important as you control when you are going to be viewing the lectures. When you&#8217;re getting ready to reenter the workforce, start with finding the skills and degree you require with an online college degree program.</p>

A powerful resource for individuals of all walks of life, My Colleges and Careers connects people with the programs that help them earn degrees on campus or online.</p>

<p>The internet is a fantastic tool for businesses and educators to use, and there is little doubt that e-learning has been a revolution in the education sector. However, the existence of the web as a tool does not remove the need for skill in instruction! Before embarking on an e-learning project or instituting a new learning management system, it can be helpful to identify the established pedagogical approaches to e-learning, and attempt to fit your system with them. Today we take a quick review of the major philosophical and practical theories of how we &#8216;e-learn&#8217;!<br />
Social Constructivist Approach<br />
Jean Piaget was one of the pioneers of this approach to teaching, which states that learning occurs through an interaction between experience and ideas. Some of the key elements of e-learning systems under a social constructivist approach should be:<br />
• Opportunities for interaction such as forums and blogs<br />
• Real-time collaborative capacities<br />
• The ability for students to add to the learning management system course material, such as suggesting resources or contributing to wikis.<br />
Laurillard&#8217;s Conversation Model<br />
This e-learning model aims to facilitate &#8216;putting oneself in others&#8217; shoes&#8217;. Common elements of the learning management system include:<br />
• Real-time collaborative tools<br />
• Chat fora<br />
• Methods for providing feedback<br />
• Methods for students to provide feedback ON the feedback!<br />
Emotional Learning</p>
<p><span id="more-39"></span></p>
<p>This pedagogical approach to e-learning takes the position that emotions are an essential element in the e-learning process, not something which must be ignored. Key elements for the emotional learning approach include:<br />
• Games and puzzles<br />
• Instant feedback mechanisms such as automatically scored quizzes<br />
• Video or typed chat tools for human interaction<br />
• Group tasks which require collaboration among students.<br />
Cognitive Learning Approach<br />
This approach to learning management system design is heavily focused on the neuroscientific literature which explores how our brains learn best. Some aspects of e-learning systems designed with a strong cognitive focus might include:<br />
• Tasks designed to be repeated to take advantage of optimal learning repetition intervals<br />
• Tasks utilising moving images, which are highly effective at holding attention<br />
• Direction of motor responses other than clicking the mouse or typing words &#8211; involvement with physical activities.<br />
The cognitive learning approach also encompasses the wisdom and approaches of the emotional learning approach and the social constructivist approach, as both of these models are strongly based on universal cognitive processes.<br />
Behavioural Perspective<br />
The behavioural approach to e-learning views the learning management system as a bare-bones base which teaches the necessary skills for students to practice and refine their physical skills in real life. It is the most useful pedagogical approach to take when teaching psychomotor skills; for example, teaching handwashing to nurses. Elements of a learning management system based on the behavioural approach might include:<br />
• Highly simplified instructional portions<br />
• Simulations of practical skills using manipulation of on-screen images<br />
• Checklist-based teaching of physical tasks.<br />
The ability to print from a learning management system taking a behavioural approach is essential, as students will need to take their learning materials out into the field with them to practise their new skills.<br />
In reality, a couple of pedagogical approaches will come naturally to educators &#8211; but a mixture of elements from many of them will work best with a diverse classroom of students all trying to &#8216;e-learn&#8217;!</p>
