The distance learning’s popularity is on the rise with each day, but it is evident that such an educational phenomenon requires more thorough research. The article by Timerlan Kaiyrmagambetov, is an analysis of distance learning in an attempt to answer the question: Is there a significant difference between traditional and distance education? In addition, the aim of the work is to prepare the framework and the criterion for analysis by comparing similar case studies, followed by looking at the effectiveness of teaching physics through distance learning for the Secondary school students in Kazakhstan.
