Medical Assistant Distance Education

Medical Assistant
Online Medical Assistant Classes
Distance education (distance learning) is a field of education that focuses on technology and instructional systems design that are effectively incorporated in delivering education to students who are not physically "on site" to receive their education. Instead, teachers and students may communicate asynchronously (at times of their own choosing) by exchanging printed or electronic media, or through technology that allows them to communicate in real time (synchronously). St. Augustine Medical Assistant School offers a great example as to how this type of learning takes place.

Medical Assistant: e-Learning classes

Advantages of e-learning often include flexibility and convenience for the learner especially if they have other commitments, facilitation of communication between learners, greater adaptability to a learner's needs, more variety in learning experience with the use of multimedia and the non-verbal presentation of teaching material. E-Learning allows individuals to learn at their own pace and can minimize fear and intimidation in front of colleagues that could occur in a traditional class setting. Video instruction provides visual and audio learning that can be paused, and reversed for watching again. E-learning can have huge benefits when compared with organizing classroom training.
