Synchronous learning refers to real-time, instructor-led sessions where learners and instructors interact simultaneously, whether in person or through virtual platforms.
This method promotes immediate feedback, collaboration, and a structured learning environment, making it ideal for complex topics that benefit from live discussion and clarification.
On the other hand, asynchronous learning allows learners to access content at their own pace and on their own schedule. It often includes pre-recorded lectures, eLearning modules, and discussion boards, providing flexibility and the ability to accommodate diverse learning styles and time zones.
Asynchronous learning is particularly effective for self-directed learning paths and enables organizations to scale their L&D efforts without being constrained by time or location.
