It def. makes things much easier for those that can't afford the time to actually attend class during normal hours.
yes. And no, I don't feel this contradicts my opinions expressed in another thread.

Do you mean actual classes or people thinking they can learn everything from internet and form their opinions thanks to wikipedia and Google?

I like being able to chat face-to-face with my professors after class.

The Open University has been successfully running along similar lines for years. Generally though, I think universities provide a social function beyond just the learning aspect. Although that wouldn't be a major factor for everyone.

for very basic training, yes maybe.
but for more advanced subjects i think the lack of like-minded surroundings might have a negative influence. when i hear friends at university talk about their education and what they learn from, they all say that talking to other students about what they learn is very high on the list. it's like learning a language: the best way to do so is to communicate with people who speak it. it's like math classes. sometimes someone asks a question about a subject that isn't really a problem for you, but the teacher's answer just makes things simpler or easier. that's something you don't have with online studying, such input from different people. |

after doing research about it, a strong NO. You can barely get a usable degree out of it currently. Maybe in the future...

I highly suspect most people will opt for online education in the future....it only makes sense. But your right, maybe right now it's not in anyone's better interest. Cell phones weren't either in the late 80's.

if online education gives you a good payed job
yes and now i'm going to think negative then you have people who payed alot for their education and have a sort of destiney settled future all preplaned and agreed behind closed doors corropted or not family connections or not and that ofcourse is a futurewall to keep other people out from also having a good future, a good job with good money and that future wall keeps the poor poor and the rich rich and those who are their slaves this doesn't say nothing about the talent that everyone has |

I'm all for non-English speaking Americans...
but shit, sometimes on this board I wish the internet had a "press 1 for English" option.

Adam was pussy whipped. I'm pretty sure Eve handed him the apple. Men will always love the sinful aspects of their nature before anything else. If the apple really did in fact introduce man to knowledge (the Bible would refer to it as "sin"), then I guess that apple was really worth biting into. Too bad I can't pick one up at Kroger. Adam, you selfish jerk!

YES i took financial accounting online. It was much more difficult than actually being in class though. You have to have a lot of discipline.

in concept it sounds like a great idea, to be able to have the less financially well off be able to get the same education as those who could afford it in the old system. ( now that the rich have decided it should be een more of a luxury and not one of the very few rights I beleive should belong to someone in a democratic state) in reality it is not less expensive, at least not in my old country.. and the education would not be of the same standard. maybe one day, when you can join a classroom via technology, but then it would still not benefit anyone in a lower class system sine they would probably not be able to afford the technology let alone fees.
I don't have another solution in mind.. but I think it is not an option, in it's current state.. Honestly I believe more in private companies being either registered as higher training authorities, and or companies leasing out professionals via small government grants to universities a few times a month to overall enable more classes and therefore more students. |

Better to have someone do online education with actual teachers tha to be home-schooled by their mom who stopped paying attention in class in 6th grade.

Totally agree with Rob.
However, it depends on the level of schooling for me, especially with respect to higher ed. I look at graduate programs and even doctoral programs that are 80%-100% online and I just think, there is no way that’s the best way to do that. No way that’s as legitimate as an in-person program/fellowship, etc. But it could be. It really could be with the way technology has advanced since I was in college. Anyway, in general I think most people learn better in the classroom, but it’s not always easy, convenient, or even possible (see: Bigass Fuckin’ Pandemic We’ve Been Dealing With For 2½ Years). |
