Hands-on projects can be asynchronous learning tools because they usually incorporate all of the learning styles into one distinct lesson. Teachers explain things for auditory learners while simultaneously using a diagram for visual learners. Then teachers and students work together on a hands-on project so that learners who do better in a hands-on environment can benefit from the same lesson at the same time as the other students.
Multimedia presentations are considered to be asynchronous learning tools because they allow students to look at a subject or lesson from all different perspectives. Students can watch videos, read descriptions and use computer programs while they learn. With asynchronous learning, multimedia presentations present information to all students at the same time.
Group projects are asynchronous learning tools because they enhance all students' abilities to learn in different ways at the same time. A well-constructed group project should assign various tasks to students so they can excel in the areas where they do their best learning. As students work together, each exhibiting their own best learning and focusing on their own learning styles, they are able to achieve harmony as a group.
Often a teacher assigns various projects to students, which is good for the students who learn well in the learning styles in which those projects are based, but it isn't not good for other students with different learning styles. However, if teachers give students a list of projects that they can choose from, each student can pick one that fits into his own learning the best. These are asynchronous because they can encompass all of the learning styles while still focusing on the projects at hand.
