EDU: Online VS Traditional


      Some people say that online education is an excellent alternative to
traditional education. But others people believe that virtual education
can not substitute traditional one.

      In today`s world online education is rapidly increasing thanks to development
of computer technology. So some people assume that such education plays
a more significant role than education at school, whereas others doubt that
traditional education might be replaced.in my opinion, virtual education is not as effective as traditional one. Firstly, students do not have an opportunity to communicate with their teachers and
classmates face to face. They are isolated from one another that has a
negative influence on their character. Their social and communicative skills
are poorly developed. Secondly, at class pupils can exchange ideas and
thoughts. Therefore it makes easier and more interesting to master subjects.Moreover, while studying online, students become addicted to a computer.On the other hand, supports of virtual education are sure that it provides an easier and more comfortable way of obtaining knowledge, as there is no need to attend classes and spend time to get to school. Also they claim that pupils are not restricted in a schedule that allow them to distribute time more rational.It might be true, but if students are free from a schedule, they will spend more time themselves. So it will badly affect studying.In conclusion, I am strongly convinced that traditional education should not be substituted. However, it is possible that both education will be mixed.
