Distance Learning is an approach to education in which a majority of the
instruction occurs when student and instructor are not in the same place. It allows for
the adoption of a range of learning strategies in a variety of technology based learning
environments such as Interactive TV, online (web-based), and teleconferencing.
Interactive TV is a technology-driven means of letting people in
different locations simultaneously see and hear each other, working in much the same way
they would if they were all in the same room. Interactive TV connects two or more remote
locations, letting parties at either end see video images of each other and share audio.
