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 contract 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 before signing on to make sure it’s rigorous enough. If you are
choosing your own program, look into its accreditation before enrolling.
·
The need to self-start: Distance education lets you make
your schedules. If you have a hard time getting motivated, this might not be
the ideal educational setting for you
Choose the right!!!!
