Online(e)-Learning: *Less sense of instructor control *Easier for participants to ignore instructor *No waiting for participants to arrive *No latecomers or early leavers *Don't meet in a room; no shared physical context (other than text)
Face-to-face learning: *More sense of leadership from Instructor *Not so easy to ignore instructor *Often have to wait for others to arrive People leave during the meeting&other events *Verbal discussions: a more common mode, but impermanent. *Meet in a room; strong physical context.
1. Students come to a more complete understanding by comparing with others.
2. Having to explain to others encourages elaboration.
3. Students with better skills serve as models.
4. Discussion of controversial topics promotes more sophisticated thinking.
5. They're usually more motivating.
Disadvantages of Group Learning:
1. Greater chance of conflict between individual learners.
2. Decision-making takes more time.
3. Segregation of individuals can occur.
4. Less extroverted individuals can feel intimidated and be hesitant to contribute.
5. The trainer may need to intervene and provide leadership.
6. It's easier for individuals to avoid doing any work and let others do it all.
7. Reaching agreement can be difficult.
8. Things can get rowdy and out of hand.
2. Online/Face to Face Learning:
1. A major reason students turn to online classes is because of the convenience.
2. You can sit at home or go to a library to do your coursework.
3. This eliminates the need for driving, which saves gas, and in some cases, allows you to take classes from distant schools.
4. Online learners also get to develop their Internet, technology and virtual team skills by participating in online discussions, tests and other virtual learning activities.
5. The ability to do coursework on your own schedule and to manage the pace of your learning experience are also benefits to online students.
Disadvantages of Online/Face to Face Learning:
1. Students may easily assume a passive role during the lesson, in a form of dependence on the teacher.
2. They might become inactive in classes and not being able to assimilate much knowledge.
3. As time passes by, some might lack behind in their studies and would not be able to reach the necessary level of expertise to pass the exams.
govindan.R cooperative learning makes every one to be alert in which they are plunged for fishing the ultimate decision .
So it's first positive point is helping all other to be at class .
then it allows everybody to put their thoughts in open
Here it makes debate that leads people until at the end, especially reaching the solution for the main
In this class, all of them wants to share according to plot ,otherwise it takes a long period of time to be completed
So at the end there definitely there will be answer for the question
Negative points
In this e group- learning sometimes people let them free from the decision- making task, as if other would complete the rest
Sometimes disagreement holds our neck , if there is chance for non- stop talks
always similar or expected answer from the group , but not that much unique
Face to face e learning This is a nice way to interact people both technologically and socially with one another and also connect the people from the north to south at a single time .
positive feed back
It helps people to attend the class even from the home to another side of the world ,
Having such as class face to face class one doesn't want to explore from one place to another
So as we known, this kind of classes descend the part of one's burden ,
Here one can express his thoughts freely and doesn't worry about others' point of view ,as they are at distance ,
In the face to face e learning all of them will be given chances to clarify their suspicious questions
dis advantage
Here there is no that much chance to have first hand close social interaction with other members when they are in other corner of the world
it makes people to meet at non- stop argument
interaction with teacher will be less
here a student can not look for a sudden response , but , which will be given later .
1.Many studies support the view that EL(e-learning) enhances active learning in students when compared with TL(Traditional Learning).
2.EL requires strong pedagogical focus to the design of EL units as against the TL pedagogy.
3.EL demands appropriate infrastructure and strong technological aptitude Vs TL.
4.ELearners have some common frustrations like lack of prompt feedback,ambiguous instructions on the web, and technical issues, which is never the case in TL.It can have negative effects on cognition, which can demotivate students considerably,especially when they are inexperienced users, studying in an online environment.
5.Despite all these, research has proved that E-learners outperform their peers in TL, because they are able to break free from any reservations they might have(like feeling shy, or having inhibitions to open-up in the physical presence of others in the class,as in the case of TL).This in turn aids the e-learners in active learning through collaboration,sharing and networking of ideas.
