Online learning, also known as e-learning, is a form of education where students use electronic means such as the internet, computer software, or other digital devices to access educational materials and complete activities. Online learning allows students to engage in education remotely, without the need for them to physically attend a traditional classroom or campus. This type of learning can be either synchronous or asynchronous, meaning that it can happen in real-time interactions with instructors or peers, or it can be self-paced, allowing students to complete their studies at their own pace. Online learning is becoming increasingly popular across the world, particularly in regions with limited educational opportunities, as it allows students to access academic resources and instructors from a range of locations.
