What is distance learning?

Nowadays it is mainly carried out through the medium of distributed learning, e-learning, m-learning, online learning, virtual classroom and so forth. Hence, multiple devices are necessary for effective distance learning. Due to its flexible approach, it is popular among many students all over the world.
