Primarily distance learning involves the contact of the teacher and the student through specific software, which is a lesson and record it. We should also note that this training assumes independence more than work with the teacher.

By the end of the seventies, when progress in the field of communication allowed the use of satellites and other means of transmission, created the new form of training saves you a lot of time. Nowadays, the Internet allows anyone to accept an incoming call via the Internet and complete any available training. So this form of education, and announced himself the planet.

In 1970 in the United Kingdom opened the first distance learning University – the Open University of UK, the name he received because of the low prices and because of the lack of practical necessity to attend classes very often. The end of the 80-ies of the twentieth century, gave the possibility of implementing computer-based training, as there was a leap in technology in this area.

In Russia the date of the formal development of distance learning can be considered may 30, 1997, when he published the order № 1050 of the Ministry of education to conduct the experiment of distance learning in education.

In the XXI century the availability of computers and the Internet make the spread of distance learning even easier and faster. The Internet has become a huge breakthrough, much more than radio and television. Have the opportunity to communicate and receive feedback from any student, no matter where he was. The spread of 'fast Internet' has given the opportunity to use online seminars (webinars) to teach. The first in the post-Soviet space became a remote school 'education Center 'Optima', giving students grades 1-12 the opportunity to learn remotely in a comfortable environment, not to depend on the location and state of health, to study individually and at their own speed perception. It is noteworthy that graduates of distance education 'Optima' receive state documents on education and can enroll in any University in the world.

The advantage of this form of learning is the ability to save time, training in foreign Universities, reducing the cost of rent, quality of service and a huge library of books at your chosen University, electron.

Full course 'part-time' involves students in viewing the live broadcast of a video course, which offers students new learning opportunities and organizes the process so that the student is not bored. Therefore, high-quality distance-learning program is highly valued in Kazakhstan, as has just appeared.

Experienced teachers and programmers create the opportunity for students to discuss the material in the voice and written chat in order not to create an atmosphere of disunity, as is done in modern online games.

As you know the range of distance learning must have a gigantic selection of different methods of perception. At the moment there are the following types:

• Webinar – lessons, seminars, conferences, role plays and many other forms of classes are using the Internet.
• The videoconference is performed using special programs, which contain not only the video component, but the chat form. This type of training has long gained popularity in the Republic of Kazakhstan and now is used for more education instead of correspondence, allowing very qualitatively to perceive the information and to do homework.
• VR training is the most modern method of training in which using virtual reality glasses, the students are in the room of the lecturer, with the creation of the atmosphere of presence of the teacher nearby.
