Asynchronous learning and synchronous learning are two different approaches to education. Asynchronous doesn't require real-time interaction between instructions and learnings. They have flexibility in course materials and complete assignments at their own pace. Communication is through email, discussions or messaging. Whereas, synchronous involves real time interaction often through video conferencing, webinars, or live chat. Learners are expected to be online and promotes interaction with questions, discussions and real-time feedback.
