Do You Prefer Scheduled or Free Form Learning?

Summertime really highlights the differences between synchronous and asynchronous online classes. Students taking scheduled, synchronous courses must log in at specific times every week. This is a useful way to keep up with coursework, but it can also keep learners from those evening barbecues and last minute vacations. Asynchronous learning, on the other hand, lets students log in whenever they please. Students love the flexibility but find it easy to fall behind without regular class meetings.
