Some people agree that online studying is becoming more common in higher institutions. This essay argues that the benefits of this outweigh the drawbacks. The essay first demonstrates that education from home has flexibility of hours for learning and less costs of living, transport,and materials for students, followed by an analysis of how the primary disadvantage that it has no interaction with students and teachers and that it lacks practical experience is invalid.
To begin with, one of the main benefits of online education is that it is flexible. Many people work during learning, and education which not require mandatory visit to the institution is better way for them. Online studying gives students flexible schedule for study, so people could combine education in academia and work. For example In the USA most universities are fee-paying, so students have to work to cover the cost.
Also, for people, who live in one country or city and choose to study in another place is difficult pay for housing, materials for education, and transportation, so the online way is easier for them. For instance, major citizens of Kazakhstan choose correspondence courses because they have not any opportunities for relocation to other place.
However, some have argued that the prime disadvantage of online learning is has not any communication between students and teachers, that can make it difficult to fully engage in learning and to share ideas and opinions on topics, and also a little practical experience, that is really important for future workers. These flows of homeschooling have a significant negative impact on students.
In conclusion, while there are certain disadvantages of homeschooling associated with lacks of practice and interaction with others, the advantages it provides that flexibility of hours and less costs are far more important.
