I visited the Macromedia website, and sampled some of the recorded seminars. In addition to this I attempted to join one of the virtual classrooms, unfortunately though there was not one in session.
Advantages of e-learning over traditional teaching, i found, was the convinience of it. For example it could be eleven o'clock at night and i could go onto the website to listen a seminar, in addition to this if I was at university and I missed a lecture, I could recap on one of the recorded seminars online, that was a similar subject.
Disadvantages I found however was the extreme luck one needed to find a virtual classroom that was in session, this takes away some of the convinience of the site. Moreover the times at which the teachers came online to host the classrooms were living in america. This meant that if they came onlin at four o'clock in the afternoon, this would equate as one o'clock in the morning in Great Britain.
