Synchronous learning describes forms of education, instruction, and learning that occur at the same time, but not in the same place. The term is most commonly applied to various forms of digital and online learning in which students learn from instructors, colleagues, or peers in real time, but not in person. For example, educational video conferencing (ex. Zoom), interactive webinars, chat-based online discussions (ex. Google Hangouts/Google Meet), and lectures that are broadcast at the same time they are delivered are forms of synchronous learning.
Asynchronous learning describes forms of education, instruction, and learning that do not occur in the same place or at the same time. The term is most commonly applied to various forms of digital and online learning in which students learn from instruction—such as pre-recorded video lessons or tasks that students complete on their own. These tasks do not occur in person or in real time. Asynchronous learning also includes email exchanges between teachers, online discussion forums, and the learning management system (LMS).
