Distance Learning Distance Learning is learning carried out apart from the usual classroom setting; in an asynchronous setting. Distance learning traditionally takes the form of special "learning modules" delivered to the learner via mail, completed by the student, and returned to the instructor. With the advent of the internet, a new type of learning online has become possible (see E-learning; however, this has not yet supplanted traditional distance learning). Additional types of asynchronous learning, as offered by Western International University, via newsgroups setup through the student login page at the WIU campus website onto the students Outlook Express. As of now Outlook Express is the only e-mail client that the website supports.
