Online and Distance Learning. What’s the difference between Online and Distance Learning?

Online learning.

Online learning courses are a 100% online, providing students with an incredible amount of flexibility in choosing where they learn, when they learn and even how they learn.

Online learning lets you study from wherever, whenever

Students have access to a virtual platform with recorded lectures, student resources and e-books, on top of access to the full digital library of a University. Interactive learning tools such as discussion forums, group projects or online self-test quizzes are used to keep students engaged in the content and encourage interaction with their fellow peers. Given how much of today’s working environment requires facilitation through online correspondence, an online MBA or online masters degree is an excellent way to learn essential communication skills as by proxy.

Stafford Global offers an Online MBA from Edinburgh Napier University UK. Its virtual learning environment is complemented with comprehensive tutorial support; a personal UK tutor offers advice regarding assessments, assignment feedback, answers questions etc., – no different to full-time students.

Regardless of study preference one thing is true between distance and online learning: one must be disciplined and self-motivated, both very useful skills to cultivate in life.
