> Are you looking to help those who are unable to go to school due to a 
> physical disability or are you a student who is unable to go to school? You 
> should look into distance education or distance learning.
> What is distance education though? Distance education is a field of education 
> that uses technology and instructional systems to educate students who are 
> not physically able to receive their education. Instead of the student who is 
> unable to attend a class either buys the video of a teacher teaching a 
> subject or, more popular today, the student watches the teacher over a webcam.
> Now that you know what distance education is, when did it start?
> The oldest university to use distance education would have to be the 
> University of South Africa which has been offering distance education since 
> 1946. It has been available since the 1840s in Great Britain though.
> The early forms of distance education would use a commercial correspondence 
> to deliver the piece of education to the student. Many colleges in America 
> use distance education today, although any student can receive it, not just 
> the disabled. Many students have at least one internet class a semester which 
> is where you *[geo 
> guessr|https://complextime.com/geoguessr-what-makes-it-the-best-geographic-discovery-game/]*
>  stay at your house and watch the teacher teach over a live webcam feed.
> If you are going to do distance education it is important for you to know the 
> options you have on having it delivered to you. The most obvious choice is 
> for you to do what is called virtual classrooms which is where you watch the 
> lesson on your laptop over a live webcam feed. You can also order DVDs and 
> VHS tapes or just order books or other written print and read them.
> There is a difference between open learning and distance learning, but what 
> is it? Open learning is when the student is allowed to choose the time and 
> place he/she wants to learn. Distance learning is when the student and 
> teacher are unable to meet at the same time. This is important because not 
> all open learning schools use distance learning and not all schools that use 
> distance education are open learning schools.
> Distance education is definitely on the rise as many more schools are 
> beginning to use virtual classrooms and provide more options for the disabled 
> and those who are unable to attend classes. If you are thinking about 
> becoming a distance education teacher you should consider it. You will be 
> able to choose the time you want to record a lesson and just send it to your 
> students to watch at the time they want.
> Distance education is a great thing because it allows many students who were 
> originally unable to attend school to do so and it also allows teachers the 
> chance to teach more students then they would originally be able to teach.
