ASYNCHRONOUS SYSTEM
An ongoing debate addresses the usefulness of asynchronous versus synchronous elearning. Asynchronous e-learning, commonly facilitated by media such as e-mail and discussion boards, supports work relations among learners and with teachers, even when participants cannot be online at the same time. It is thus a key component of flexible e-learning. In fact, many people take online courses because of their asynchronous nature, combining education with work, family, and other commitments. Asynchronous e-learning makes it possible for learners to log on to an e-
learning environment at any time and download documents or send messages to teachers or peers. Students may spend more time refining their contributions, which are generally considered more thoughtful compared to synchronous communication.
television was developing as early as. On that year, Lowa State University used television to deliver instruction. Educators started to systematically use this innovation for instructional purposes during the 1950s. By the 1960s, education systems were finally aware of the potential educational value of audio-visual and telecommunications capabilities. Television is now used around the world in distance education systems. With recent improvements in broadcasting, instructional television (ITV) is becoming a viable option for improving educational opportunities, particularly for distant learners. Asymmetric computer based delivery system: Computers can also be used to deliver distance education instruction. In the one-way asynchronous computer system, an individual can communicate with the distance education center using a personal computer and a telephone line. Course instruction is stored in a central computer library. Each student, whether domestic or international, has his/her own account number. Whenever they wish, wherever they are, these students can enter into the main computer library to receive instructions. Instructional packages may include picture, text, audio and graphics. The students can also receive self-paced tutorial programs from the computer. They do not need to send the hard copy papers of correspondence study because they can forward them by internet. The Distance Education Centers also can return their evaluations to students by computer mail.
Theoretical Frame work of Synchronous Model at the Islamia University Bahawalpur Islamia University Bahawalpur is one of the renowned universities of Pakistan. It has acquired seventh position in higher education ranking. Its progress towards innovative models of educational technology and market need based courses are attracting students from all over the country. Weekend programs and distance learning institute of IUB are contributing a lot in the educational services of Pakistan. Keeping the future challenges of education in mind and to preserve and enhanced the quality of education. Modern technologies usages as instructional technology must be increased more and more. Now universities are adopting fourth and fifth models of distance learning that are the blend of asynchronous and synchronous system. Synchronous system benefits more in learning achievements. In this system students and teacher can hear and see each other. Students can ask any question to threir teacher and these teachers can answer the question instantly.To increase the increase of interaction, specially distance educators need to find the best technologes available to learner and in their institutions. For this purpose, online educational system in which synchronous model has much attraction to create face to face and real time learning. IUB has developed a consortium of eight universites. So, implementation of synchronous model is quite necessary for which IUB has sufficient resources. Here in this report try to see how synchronous model can be implemented in IUB.
Teleconferencing facility
Islamia University Bahawalpur is using teleconferencing on limited basis. Its spectrum can be broadened in the intrest of better learning. By using this technology we may provede faced to face opportunity for the distance learner of IUB.
