Sistance Education: Is a Virtual Classroom for you? Part 3


Distance Education: Is a Virtual Classroom for you?
Part 3
Challenging Aspects of Distance Education
  • ·        Lack of in-person interaction: Some educators argue that both teacher-student and student-student contact are essential to learning. In a distance-learning classroom, you may be able to participate in class discussions online in chat rooms, message boards or Web conferences—but it’s not the same as being with other students in a classroom.
  • ·        Different levels of quality: many distance-education programs supply an excellent learning experience, but others may not.  Research any program; look into its accreditation before enrolling.
  • ·        The need to self-start: distance education lets you make your own schedules. If you have a hard time getting motivated, this might not  be the ideal educational setting for you

CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!
