What is the difference b/w the instructor based and self-paced learning?

An instructor led course is defined by its name. An instructor defines the curriculum of the subject & sets the instruction and after all of that, he evaluates the whole reading material. Although it is set to schedule and completes in a calendar, it can be very useful for the procrastinators.

The instructor is responsible for all kind of public announcements and regular notifications. You can also be in touch with the instructor privately during and after completion of a project and he gives you feedback of your project report. It can be privately or by email too.

In an instructor led course, content is released when the students need it. all the content is not released at once. This thing prepares all the students to be present in same place and removes all the confusion and disjointment.

In self-paced learning, whole of the course is predetermined like the instructor led courses. It is divided into the different units, chapters and modules. Students reads the whole content in sequential way and can give time on the more challenging areas.

Not only in the academic world, but also in the business world self-paced courses are very important. These courses have the proper navigation links to scroll from one page to another. There are also instructors which can help you answer the questions of your difficulties.
