Abstract
Recently, the continuing development of telecommunication technology has enabled the creation of a new form of education—online education (OLE). OLE provides the flexibility and efficiency of computer-assisted instruction as well as the individual attention and support of instructor-guided instruction. It brings many new opportunities and challenges to schools, instructors, and students. The development of OLE has significant implications for traditional education. The change of communication channels and methods subsequently change the requirements for instructional skills, learning skills, administrative services, and educational facilities. Traditional schools, instructors, and students must prepare themselves with new tools and skills to meet the new challenges.
