Distance 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 interactions.  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 boarders or web conferences—but it’s not the dame as being with other students in a classroom.

·       Different levels of quality: many distance-education programs supply an excellent learning experience, nut others may not. Research any program before signing on to make sure it’s rigorous enough. If you are choosing your own program, look into its accreditation before enrolling.

·       The needs 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 education setting for you.

Choose the Right!!!
