With a couple of kids and a mother-in-law, a commitment towards life and frequent cross-country relocation, many housewives are banking on online learning to get a degree as on-campus classes are an impossible thought.

Online learning continues to remain the prime mode of learning to the majority of women across the globe. This is mainly because this mode of learning offers a flexible approach to learning where learners are gaining the freedom to work, live and and study on their own accord.

Empowering women for a greater cause.

Online learning is intuitively empowering mothers and working women by letting them take their own decision to carry on their studies. If a single mother choose to contribute to her family financially by doing a part-time or full-time job the first thing she needs to do is participating in an online degree course. All she needs to do is enrolling in an online learning institution that provides online courses and going through the session with a great zeal. And surely this degree will help her getting a job and meet the ends.

Let's see the reasons why online learning is considered essential in arming women with further choice.

Flexible study schedule.

Managing time is the main constraint for the mothers and the female students. Karen VanGorder, director of online programs at Indiana University-Purdue University—Fort Wayne, expresses her feeling, "If you work 40 hours a week and you spend 10 hours a week cooking and cleaning and doing those things, you just run out of time. You have to sleep," she says. "It would be nice if we could say, 'Along with your scholarship, here’s an extra 10 hours a week.'"

So the moot point is that the desire to get a degree remains unattained as traditional learning does not provide the opportunity to personalised study-time. Online learning on the other hand arms the female students with a flexible time-span which is all the more important because they can continue study at their own comfort zone. So after managing all the household work and responsibilities a mother or inspired housewife can start learning her studies without having to worry about anything.

Study shows that online learning makes the learner more attentive as they are never forced to do something that they don't want to. It gives them the power to decide what to read and when to read. Thus, online learning is turning out to be the most effective replacement for traditional face-to-face education for those mothers.

Every spare minute is counted.

Elearning makes the female students every spare minute count. "If you have small children, definitely take advantage of nap time," points out Amanda Matheny, a single mom of 3-year-old son Loudin, who enrolled in online bachelor’s degree through Western Governors University. "In the evenings when he’s in bed I focus on studying and that way I can spend more time during the day on him," says Matheny, who lives in San Antonio.

Online learning courses are designed to stress on the learning system that promises a better career possibilities. As long as obtaining suitable job title is the eventual aim of learning than online learning will always be on top of a working woman's list.
