Recently, there has been a trend that more curricula are promoting distance teaching, especially among several universities. I hold a strong conviction that this orientation delivers both positive and negative impacts on many aspects.
Firstly, it is evident that associating online platforms with education is beneficial for learners through the enhancement of teaching quality and convenience. Students can absorb knowledge effectively by utilizing recorded or live lessons without missing important parts. Besides, those who struggle with geographical distance are now able to join classrooms with just one click on meeting apps to connect with teachers and pioneers. A prime example is that a university in Vietnam called “NEU” has been adopting online education into its program which significantly improves its learner’s academic performances.
On the other hand, despite having numerous advantages. A comprehensive education can not completely replace online learning with traditional classrooms at school. This is due to the fact that administrators are incapable of ensuring the qualities of teaching for a long time as well as student management. For instance, online learning requires a high level of self-discipline and motivation from learners as they need to stay on track with their studies
without the structure of a traditional classroom setting. Another point to make is that online platforms can be isolating for several because they lack face-to-face interactions and this may create participation barriers.
In conclusion, I believe that this orientation must be considered clearly before adopting into the education system
