Learning Online in Universities and Colleges

It 'true that most of the universities have employed all over the world the new technology in their education systems; or offer fully online learning systems or mixing learning systems, where the benefits of online and traditional learning module can be reached (Paechter, 2010). This paper argues that online learning can replace traditional learning in all aspects of higher education, but not. Some aspects have employee training, but e-learning can support it. This essay aspects of online education and traditional in terms of four criteria: accessibility, interaction and communication, study room and the practice in some educational programs. First e-learning has a lot of benefits on learning campus-based. the online learning accessibility is simple and straightforward in higher education, while learning campus bounded by time and place. Online learning provides greater flexibility for students, where you can access in a reasonable time, the information in their home and work (Rohleder et al., 2008). A study by Rohleder (2008) shows that this approach to information learning facilitates access to many resources, not only on class material, but also on electronic data on university library sites. Today, with a network of fiber optic cables to communicate on the Internet is faster, saves time.
Despite the accessibility advantage of web-learning, there are some complications. observed a good example of a technical problem, such as a power failure, the students received between two study evaluating universities in South Africa in 2008 (cited Rohleder, 2008; pp 100-102). As Poul Rohleder (2008) states that only 5% of the technical difficulties students (p, 100). In addition, students need a long time to wait until they can not use a computer because of the high demand on them (Rohleder et al., 2008). But the result could not affect accessibility.
