What is Synchronous Learning?

What does 'Synchronous Learning' mean?

Synchronous learning refers to any teaching in which the learner(s) and the instructor(s) are both present simultaneously. This includes live online meetings with the entire class or smaller groups and in-person classes. Students frequently walk through the learning route together in synchronous learning, accompanied by their instructor, who can guide them while doing assignments and activities. Most online learning occurs asynchronously, with synchronous learning occurring mainly when there is a special requirement for live discussion or contact or as a technique to foster community among students.
