Role of Distance Learning Technologies in Education


Currently, to keep pace with the continually changing information technologies, it is necessary to learn continuously. One of the forms of education is distance learning. What is it?

Distance learning is a way to implement the learning process, based on the use of modern information and telecommunication technologies, allowing carrying out learning at a distance without direct, personal contact between the teacher and the student.



In previous years, children who could not attend school received education at home with the help of parents or visiting teachers. Today, the development of modern technology allows those who wish to receive training at home to implement it with convenience and comfort. Internet connectivity and the availability of appropriate technical devices are all that is needed to start distance learning.

There are many reasons why a child cannot study in educational institutions. Here are some of them:

The family often changes their place of residence, moving from city to city;

The student is additionally involved in sports and only cannot attend school on a standard schedule;

Mastering academic disciplines are difficult for a child;

The student is significantly ahead of his peers in the rate of mastering the material;
Conflict with the teacher does not allow the child to learn the program and get good grades calmly. 

In many such cases, distance learning is an excellent alternative to school attendance.

Distance education undoubtedly has its advantages in comparison with traditional forms of learning:

- Higher adaptability to the level of basic training and abilities of students, health, place of residence, and, accordingly, better opportunities to accelerate the process of obtaining education and improve the quality of education;

- Improving the quality of the educational process by focusing on the use of automated training and testing systems;

- Accessibility for students of "cross" information, since they have the opportunity, using computer networks, to turn to its alternative sources;

- Increasing the creative and intellectual potential of students through self-organization, the desire for knowledge, the ability to interact with computers and independently make responsible decisions;

- Pronounced practicality of learning (students can communicate directly with a specific teacher and ask questions about what interests them most).

 Thus, the introduction of a distance learning system in educational organizations will allow solving the following problems:

- Education of children with special educational needs, as well as frequently ill children;

- Organization of remote control of students' knowledge;

- Work with gifted children (individual advanced tasks of a higher level);

- Assistance to students on the independent development of specific topics or sections of the school course;

- Support in the in-depth/profile study of subjects of interest to students.

However, some problems and difficulties accompany the introduction of distance learning technologies in the educational process:

• Regulatory (payment scheme for course authors and teachers conducting classes using DOT);

• Pedagogical (training of new authors of distance courses and distance teachers);

• Technical and ergonomic (availability of high-quality access to the Internet);

• Psycho-physiological (lack of working time to conduct distance courses during working hours, a large workload of the teacher with current work);

• Balancing the availability and quality of education;

• The need to adopt the teacher to the distance form of pedagogical activity in terms of his technical, methodological and psychological skills;

• Increase learning motivation through online study.

• Creating a favorable psychological climate during training;

• Observance of the norms and rules of network etiquette and standards of pedagogical ethics.

To eliminate problems when learning with the use of distance technologies, it is essential to take into account that a student's motivation and interest play a significant role in virtual space. Even the best and most advanced technologies, such as informational and psychological-pedagogical, can have the opposite effect without optimizing the educational process, so for a quality and accessible education it is not enough just to introduce a distance education system into the learning process, a creative approach to business is necessary; learning activities of teachers and students. After all, learning with the use of distance learning technologies is just a specific form of organization of education, requiring changes in the foundations of the traditional educational process and a revision of the principles and methods in teaching.

Do not have a tunnel vision as you might miss something important while just having a look at the jobs which are of your subject, might be the domain is of better interest of yours than your study.

If you take up internship in your semester days, then this is subtracted from your 120 days permit visa. You can earn up to 450 eur per month, over and above it you would receive a tax slip and the salary would be automatically deducted from your salary.
