There is Increase in use of online educational sources as the technology has evolved and remote excess is available to people. Although, there are advantages of online learning but I feel disadvantages outweigh the advantages and are hard to ignore when it comes to gaining knowledge. We will deep dive into some major disadvantages of online education and also some advantages of the it.
Disadvantages of online learning are hard to count on fingertips but one severe drawback is lack of social exposure. Indeed, learning is key skill but learning how to live and survive in different situation and people is also important skill for successful life. Which cannot be learned in online education moreover, management knowledge cannot happen without actually facing several real-life scenarios. Last but not the least efficiency of people decreases due to lack of authority surveillance and screen rays increasing fatigue of eyes and brain.
First major advantage is it increase the scope of knowledge through internet tools and visual resources available on the internet. It also decreases the time wastage to transport from home bed to school or college classrooms. It also provides access to avail education from any place you travel or visit. It also limits the resources which are needed to acquire knowledge like uniform, transportation charge, physical tools like pen and paper.
To sum it up the debate I would say I believe that online learning is a big boon to educational standards and overall growth of people. Some advantage tries to balance the debate but at last old school teaching over power the online teaching trends.
