Synchronous Online Learning - Learners sign onto a computer at a specific time to meet with the instructor and other students. Learners hear the instructor and see text, graphics and/or video streaming on their computer screen.

This learning method is somewhat similar to a traditional classroom or video conference setting because an instructor presents information, answers questions and monitors discussions. (Definition courtesy of SIAST)
