This week in class we learned about Professional web presence and what distance education is. Distance education is also know as distance learning and is a field of education that focuses on teaching methods and technology with the aim of delivering teaching to students who are not physically present in a traditional educational setting such as a classroom.
Distance education relates to my major which is Special Education because if I am teaching a class and a student gets sick through distance education the student can still do the work I am teaching even though they can not physically come to the classroom. I believe that distance education is a really realistic approach because many students get sick through out the school year and this is a great solution for them not to miss work. This website,http://www.indiaeducation.net/DistanceEducation/, is really interesting because it shows how they do distance education in India!! It is interesting to see how education is like in different countries.
