But real-time instant interaction and possibility of non-verbal information transfer has led to a change in paradigm of how e-learning is being envisaged in its traditional sense. On the one hand, it lures academics to fall back to their traditional habits of face-to-face instructions and, on the other, it promises to provide the best of both worlds. Various new challenges are emerging from the use of synchronous techniques along with some very exciting opportunities of improving the quality of instruction and learning. 606 $aInternet in education 606 $aComputer networks 615 0$aInternet in education. 615 0$aComputer networks. 701 $aKinshuk$01121589 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910824912503321 996 $aSpecial issue$94102752 997 $aUNINA
