Abstract

Traditional teaching, in which teachers and students need to meet face to face, have been widely applied for centuries. In the traditional classroom, the teacher plays the primary function, trying to provide students with knowledge. However, the needs for distance learning has provoked ways to provide remote learners with desired knowledge and skills. Assisted by technology, online classes have been pervasively pervasively offered, especially in higher education Students can enroll in online courses, saving time for travel and other difficulties. While online learning is computer-based, traditional teaching and learning involves in-person meetings. This chapter first critically reviews aspects and traditional and online teaching before arguing for the advantages and disadvantages of the online education mode. It then presents the employment of synchronous and asynchronous computer-mediated communication in online education. Finally, directions for the future of online teaching and learning are discussed.
