The high level of collaboration in a real-time setting is attributable to the time spent in-person with classmates, friends, mentors, and instructors, or teachers. With support and guidance being readily available during class hours, the learning process gets easier and enjoyable, hence more effective. Share experiences and knowledge.

I realized back in the late-1990s that PowerPoint had the potential to be an effective authoring tool. The best method I have found is if you can draw a person in with a demonstration and show them that learning is occurring. The same sort of thing happened when factories were automated and when knowledge work became automated.
