 "An
online lecture is an educational
lecture designed to be posted
online. Lectures are recorded to video,
audio or both, then uploaded and made
viewable on a designated
site. Students may go to a certain
designated site to view the lecture
online at a time which is convenient for
them. Traditionally, vocal education is
possible only when the teacher and the
pupil are together in the same room,
where the teacher passes on the
information in the same vicinity of the
student. Online lectures are now
possible with the advent of video
communications. The development of the
online lecture makes it possible so that
the teacher and student no longer have
to be in the same vicinity to teach and
learn, respectively. There are certain
advantages to online lecturing. Students
may access online lectures posted on
their designated websites anywhere in
the world, at any time they wish, as
long as they have an
internet connection. They can also
be repeated for the sake of
note taking. There are disadvantages
to online lecturing, namely the lack of
face to face interaction, and the fact
that students cannot easily contact
their instructors unless a
communications link is created."
