Frequently asked questions

Self-paced online learning is often called “asynchronous remote learning” and takes place any time, anywhere. Students typically log into an online course platform and progress through a guided series of units, assignments, and assessments at a pace that works for them.

With PlayPosit, self-paced learners can still benefit from rich interactions and detailed instructor feedback—making the online experience similar to the high-touch environment of a traditional classroom.

Self-paced learning is exactly what it sounds like — learning at your own pace. A self-paced learning example is the way many continuing education platforms structure their courses; you have a start and end date, and it's up to you to make sure you're completing the coursework throughout the learning period to finish on time. If you want, you. can theoretically complete multiple sections of the course at a time, or knock it out little by little.

There are so many ways to personalize the self-paced learning experience! Use course jumps to establish multiple paths, or present different options based on student responses. Enrich feedback with links, resources, and embedded audio or video to connect with students of different learning styles. Along with auto-graded questions, enable manual grading to provide personalized feedback to each and every learner.

Synchronous learning occurs when students and instructors meet at the same time, either online or in person. Traditional in-person classes are an example of synchronous learning. Asynchronous learning, on the other hand, can happen anywhere at any time. Students are able to explore course materials and create content at their own pace as long as they’re meeting the established course deadlines.
