Nowadays, the growth of technology is very fast in the world. People can use technology much different in education. Today I am focusing one in aspect about technology for students because many students are really confused about whether they should take online classes or traditional classes. Online classes are more convenient and cheaper than traditional classes for students, but traditional classes make it easier for students to ask questions
First, online classes are more convenient than traditional classes. People who take online classes can manage their time more easily. They can open classes any time or anywhere with the Internet. The students who take online classes do not waste time driving to school or worrying about traffic jams. For example, students can connect to classes while they are doing a job or going to a coffee shop with friends.
Second, online classes are cheaper than traditional ones. People don’t have to pay a lot of tuition for school or fees to park or for athletics. Another reason is the cost of materials and textbooks in colleges is very expensive; an online class may not have to buy textbooks because they will have eLearning or something like that for students to study by themselves. For example, for students who take math online classes, the textbook of “Pearson math lab” costs about $300, but they do not have to buy it; because people will get an eBook. The eBook has the same quality as the hardcopy book.
However, traditional classes still help students a lot. One significant difference between an online class and a traditional class is that students in an online class have fewer opportunities to ask questions, interact, motivate and accessible. Unlike an online class, a traditional class has more opportunities to practice to talk to a teacher than the other.
In conclusion, online classes and traditional classes still have many benefits for each one. Even though students have been going to traditional classes to learn for a long time, online classes now are very common in the world. Online classes are becoming more popular very fast and it is more convenient. Moreover, online classes are cheaper than other. Online classes can give much knowledge with the same quality as traditional classes. The traditional class also have more opportunities to communicate with classmates which are easy to ask.
I prefer traditional classes. However, I like the online homework. My boyfriend is a person that can study by himself. All the time, he is studying online. For me, I need to know the teacher, and feel the compromise to do the homework.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you "traditional classes still help students a lot". That's right. we have to come to class and see the teacher. we can communicate and understand what we are studying.
ReplyDeleteI really prefer take classes in a classroom. In my opinion is easier for me because is face-to-face. And an online class we dont see the teacher.
ReplyDeleteI prefer traditional class for others because its supper comfortable and get what you want knowledge. nice job.
ReplyDeleteI like to take one on one class with my other students and knowing my teacher. May be it got to do with my own old fashion way.
ReplyDeleteI like to study on the class face to face better than online class.
ReplyDeletePersonally I like the traditional class for me I learned more in that way than the other but different people has own opines.
ReplyDeleteI have taken and taught both types of classes and, for me, the choice is clear: I prefer face to face. I'm glad GGC doesn't offer online EAP classes, though I certainly appreciate the convenience factor of online instruction and am glad it exists in some places for people who need it.
