More and more people are staying connected by communicating with one another online. As a result of this, distance education is becoming more widely accepted (Siemens, ). Throughout the years our communication choices have evolved from the use of telegrams, snail mail, and the telephone, to email, text messaging, and social network sites. Through the use of these tools, distance is no longer an issue.
In distance education, students and teachers are able to communicate with one another synchronously and asynchronously through the use of discussion boards, instant messenger, skype, wikis, and blogs.
