Student gives lots of respect to teachers because teacher teach not only syllabus to them but teaches most important life skills for surviving in these competitive world. Previously teacher teach inside the four walls and with the use of chalk and duster but now today’s generation of students are ultra-modern, highly equip with gadgets like smart mobile phones, tablet, pc or laptops. So, now teachers often complain about student not focusing on lectures.
The expansive nature of the Internet and the accessibility of technology have generated a surge in the demand for web based teaching and learning (Chaney, 2010). Distance learning is a rapidly expanding environment which allows users the flexibility of operating outside of the constraints of time and place (Chaney, 2010).
