So why online learning?
Many people gawk at the thought of distance learning. I have heard every excuse in the book. I need to have face to face interaction, I need to be able to raise my hand and ask a question, I would procrastinate if all of my school work was online, and a host of other excuses. Although these reasons may be legitimate for some, many others prefer to use online learning or distance learning. In this blog I plan to discuss some of the issues associated with online learning as well as some of the positives. I will search for resources and articles in support of online learning as well as research which advises against. But first, watch this video created by edutopia which explains online learning.
