Synchronous vs. Asynchronous

[LevelUP]

Asynchronous learning is excellent for people when it fits their learning style. For example, introverts that are great at coming up with their study plans or want to accelerate their learning like asynchronous learning.

Asynchronous learning with text and videos is a good start though it can be improved with interactive games. 

However, some students do poorly in asynchronous learning environments, and synchronous learning would give the highest percentage of success to a group of students.

Synchronous learning has advantages such as a set schedule, shared learning experience, peer-to-peer learning, and real-time interaction with the teacher. 

Synchronous learning is only as good as the quality of the teacher. The bigger the class size, usually the poorer the results.
