(Seattle, WA ) - In response to increased market demand for better, more powerful online learning, and at a more affordable and manageable price point, New World Communications has again moved forward with its advanced yet affordable blended online learning solution.
"By blending licensed Marratech-based realtime, face-to-face "virtual classroom" capability right within asynchronous Moodle-tm open source learning management architecture, we are now able to deliver extraordinary value in the distance learning marketplace that more public sector and private sector organizations will be able to afford", says Art Johnson, NWC's president.
"Coming out of a distance learning and broadcast television background and seeing how much first-generation distance learning technology has costed for what |
people actually got in the past, we are now very excited about the kind of advanced learning that we can deliver now, and at far lower cost," he adds. The challenge and argument with online learning, even with all its asynchronous "bells-and whistles", e.g. learner management, use of online testing, use of on-demand, rich-media, and forums, etc - has historically been that it's just not as good as "tried-and-true", "stand-up"-style, "sage-on-the-stage", mentored, face-to-face, real-time, learning dynamically delivered by a "real world" instructor.
Now by embedding and blending real-time, face-to-face Marratech "virtual classroom" functionality into existng asynchronous learning management system (LMS) architecture, (and with an interface even for "physical world" classrooms that we can provide) even the best teachers and trainers in the world as well their following of loyal students are all going to love teaching and learning with this phenomenal new capability. It now issues in an important and promising new chapter in the history of online learning. Look out world, New World Communications is about to deliver the kind of mission-critical learning that an entire world has needed.
