Distance Education: The World’s Most Powerful Tools Available at Home
Yonder Wireless, with its exclusive focus on rural communities, provides fast, reliable and always-on Internet connections. One of the greatest benefits of this century being realized through the Web are the thousands of educational and scientific resources being offered globally. This is not just for traditional school or university education, it also branches out to business best practices and career specific training, financial and investment training, as well as research for emerging science and industry.
Today’s learning institutions, including colleges and high schools, through projects such as “Internet2” are increasingly progressive with the Web and broadband speeds, opening doors to education not possible with prior to performance limitations.
Customers of Yonder Wireless are ensured that its broadband Internet connections provide the fast performance and “always on” characteristics and features that students, business people and teachers consider a “must” to promote an ever widening educational experience.
Downloading the Daily Curriculum:
Professors not only need students to attend class, they expect them to receive updated curriculum and feedback after the class time is completed. This can be accomplished by reviewing a video tape, all online, and submit materials quickly and easily by email.
Attending Class Virtually:
Students and professors now have the capability to attend a class virtually, even in another state or country, by watching, listening and submitting questions on computer screens. However, this option is not possible with dial up Internet access, as it is too slow and rigid to support the video, audio and rich Web content.
Another benefit is removing the need to leave your home for a semester in a distant city, where costs can quickly skyrocket related to housing, plane travel, and parking.
Research Through Collaboration with Teams:
The most intensive scientific and industrial research projects are being conducted by virtually distributed teams, where the greatest number of minds can work rapidly and conveniently. With Yonder Wireless, customized software and presentation programs can be run that require the speed and performance of a true, always-on broadband connection, giving the capability to stream data and voice or video communications.
More Direct Student/Teacher Communication:
With the continued pervasiveness of Web messaging tools, email and chat rooms, instructor-student relationships can expand and grow stronger. There is nothing like the capability to directly ask questions and clarify points as homework is being done, and distance learning allows for just that, where it is convenient and rewarding for both student and teacher.
College Degrees and Certifications Online:
Numerous colleges and technical education institutions now offering the entire educational experience, from diplomas to trade certifications, all from the Internet. These institutions sets-up all of their registration, required classes, coursework and tests to be completed online at anytime, speeding students to their objective while boosting their earning power.
