The virtual classroom model of e-learning remains the most familiar analog for building e-learning programs. It has ensured access to learning from qualified staff members, transcending geographical boundaries. The new integrated ICT infrastructure adopted by educational institutions enables erichment of the learning process through real-time exchange of information and sharing of best practice in imparting education across the globe.
