More references on the face-off against global learning references
In the 21st century technology is developing very quickly and play key role in various fields. In technology education opportunities that has a lot of learning becomes global. Since the last decade, trends in education is changing. lose face traditional learning its importance as the importance of online learning and global learning is growing every day. According to Robel (2007, p. 1), "The Virtual Learning barely a blip on the screen of the computer a decade ago, by becoming a part of general education. The use of technology in education is not new. According to Taylor (e, p 2), "For many years, universities with a significant commitment to education institutions distance were open to the forefront of adopting new technologies to increase access to education and training.
Global learning is becoming increasingly popular nowadays. The reason lies in the benefits of global learning in traditional learning (face to face teaching). A major advantage the global economy and e-learning is the flexibility of time. Adults can organize their work time and can access resources as needed. According to Devi (2000, p. 1), "aa Students can access information when and where they want." Whole concept of learning is learning. The Most of the advantages of online instruction are actually offered by the global learning. In addition to these global learning opportunities for students familiar with different culture by eliminating geographic boundaries that will help you later when they find an opportunity to work in companies multinationals. According to Lesta, Burgess and strong (e) benefits of online learning offers students and eliminates the geographical constraints, multiple learning styles can be easily used. Students must make a greater responsibility for their education. Therefore, it can realize its responsibilities themselves. Students may enroll in prestigious universities in their countries of origin. Therefore, it can remain with their families can receive emotional support and Financial.
Organizations and universities that offer facilities and learning general also receive many benefits by providing worldwide and services online learning rather than traditional learning. Assume that if there are 10,000 college students in learning through global learning, can not be possible the university to provide resources, such as teachers, computers, an area of study for all students to find a different part of the world. The cost of these resources may be much higher. According to Devi (2000, p. 1), "A cost-effective education and greater access for all, I think the Internet and Trade e is the solution. "
Agree to follow the evolution of education (sd), "Online classes help to teach adults who work and meet their busy work schedules and responsibilities of life at home. "It is very useful for Western countries where most adults are self-reliant. They earn their living hood and find less time to go home and for college graduates.
Statistical analysis was performed by Favretto, Caramia Guardini and displays the results face to face and online learning. Although this analysis compares online learning and learning in the classroom the same country and the university itself, but shows the results for online learning. As online learning emphasis above is the main concept behind of the overall learning so that these findings are important to compare global learning and traditional learning. According Favretoo, Caramia and Guardini (e):
Students Students are divided into three categories for classroom learning, students learn through online learning and students not attending school and learning. The results of this analysis are interesting. Most times people think that the classroom is always the best way to learn, but this analysis shows a different picture, where the average online students get more points, then the class of students in both tests. This means that Online students are more focused in their studies and access to many useful resources on the Internet.
Although global learning offers many advantages but we can not ignore the disadvantages of global learning. According to James (e);
Distance learning some drawbacks. Students can not access to Internet resources, because the frame can be broken. Students who can not manage and steer the difficult are in the learning environment distance.
A very important point that was discussed over an Internet connection may be down. Consider a situation where the student in the review (review online). Deadline for this online exam is established. Meanwhile, the connection may drop for a long period time. The result of this situation may be terrible. Bandwidth can also be another problem in global learning. According to James (ND) and limitations bandwidth may limit the search teaching methods, resulting in a decrease in performance for video sound and graphics.
Another disadvantage of Global / learning is the teacher should devote more time to answer questions from students. Suppose there is a situation in which more than Five students have the same issue of the online conference. One solution is to send an email to the teacher and ask for the answer. The teacher must meet five students who can take a long time. According to Lesta & Strong (e) teachers should spend more time responding to emails.
Until now the emphasis in this article was given to the advantages and disadvantages of global learning and traditional. We will discuss some different framework and tools that may be useful in the global economy and distance education. Innovations in technology plays a vital role in global learning. The new tools, frameworks are emerging that can be very useful for global learning. According to Essex (2007, p. 1) Internet technology has changed education distance to a considerable degree. Instead of relying on a package that had been going there for months or years can be attributed to our students the information most up to date on the web. These tools are useful for students because they can interact with each other, work together in missions. According to Essex (2007):
In the past, Worldwide live Web 1.0, where we used a discussion forum and chat especially in distance education. But now, they are Web 2.0 world where they are used, especially podcasting, blogs and wikis. Wikis are collaborative environment where several groups of people give their terms of trade op of ideas to define a schedule of activities or the development of definitions of functions and / or conditions. This means they are trying to understand the actions, so that learning can be useful when you work in an organization.
A conceptual framework for distance learning were provided by Taylor (E). According to Taylor, even though we are in the fourth generation (Flexible Learning Model based on online delivery via the Internet) distance education, but you have to think of fifth generation (essentially a derivation of the fourth generation, which aims to take advantage of features Internet and Web) of distance education (Taylor, nd).
Looking at the different authors know that there are many advantages of global learning, but there are many disadvantages of global learning. In some areas of learning can full fill all requirements, but in areas like medical science can not eliminate all face to face workshops where the supply of electricity and bandwidth can cause serious problems.
