Abstract Even though Classroom learning is hard Online learning is better than having to go to a classroom because there have been a lot of people who have been successful after graduating from an online college and online learning is more flexible than going to a regular classroom.
Classroom and Online Learning
There has been a debate in recent years if online-schooling is better than being in a classroom setting. Both can have their advantages and disadvantages. I am doing college courses online and did my high school courses in a classroom. I have found it more convenient to do classes online in my situation, because I have a full-time job. It can be hard at times though, because there is no teacher that you can ask a question to and get a helpful response right away. So that is an advantage of being in an actual classroom."
Traditional classroom learning has been the way things have been done for a long time.
One of the things that allows learners to become more adaptable to their learning environment is being able to go at a pace they can handle (Major & Taylor, 2003). Being able to be connected to the internet has gotten bigger over the last ten years (Sing, 2008). The rising availability for the web has made it so that students can have the chance to learn online (Sing, 2008). Some of the standards that are put into use are the design and delivery for a regular classroom and courses taken online (Major & Taylor, 2003). The advantages of online learning are that is let’s people learn in places where there are not any colleges or ways to get to the school (Online VS Classroom Education, 2012). All of the things that you need to complete an assignment can be gathered from the web and online mails.
A disadvantage to online learning is that people see it as not being a good way to learn and that it will not get the person a valuable job (Online VS Classroom Education, 2012). Online learning
