Well, from my perspective, I think online education has more benefit which can outweigh the drawbacks. First of all, in terms of convenience, students don’t need to go to physical class. They can just stay at home by turning their laptop or smartphone and attending online session. On top of that, they don’t really need to travel from home to school and they don’t really need to spend for gasoline. And they don’t need to care about the traffic jam or anything else that might occur during their traveling. However, the only absolute disadvantages of online education is not really like learning at a school. In online education or online class, people normally learn like put-to-ring service. They don’t really have interaction with the other classmates. They might lack of social interaction.
