e-Learning
Wizinix is an educational hive that uses e-learning by synchronous and asynchronous Computer-Based Instruction/ Technology-Enhanced Learning/ Computer-Aided Instruction, that is suited for distance and flexible learning. "e" is interpreted as "easy, educational, emotional, energetic, engaging, enthusiastic, everyone, everything, excellent, exciting, extended. " in addition to "electronic." Synchronous learning is real-time exchange of ideas and information with one or more participants, for example a face-to-face discussion, online real-time live teacher instruction and feedback, Skype conversations, or chat rooms or virtual classrooms where everyone is online and working collaboratively at the same time. Asynchronous learning, that is self-paced and allowing participants to engage in the exchange of ideas or information without the dependency of other participants, for example, email, blogs and discussion boards, as well as web-supported textbooks, hypertext, documents, multi-media courses, and social networking as means to e-learning. These are “a breeding ground for creative and educational endeavours." Knowledge is socially constructed and Learning takes place through conversations about content and interaction about problems and in fact one of the best ways to learn something is to teach it to others and this is the other important purpose and intent of Wizinix. Social networks are also used to foster online learning communities around diverse subjects like Computer Science, Medicine, Engineering, Networks and Social Sciences, hence having potential for providing education to millions of people around the world. Not only this, Wizinix has a vision for developing a forum for Knowledge Forecasting and Technology Innovation.
