1. Degree Validity To prospective employers or clients, the degree you earn from studying online is the same as one you get from a traditional college or university. It's the "degree or no degree" thing that matters to them, not whether you got yours online or not (as if they'll even know you got it online for that matter!). 2. No Classroom Distractions Not that spitballs are prevalent as they were when you were younger, but the typical traditional classroom presents distractions and disturbances that are to be expected from any setting that assembles groups of different people, personalities and agendas together. Online education does away with all that, allowing you to focus better on your objective: to learn. And quickly. 3. Instant "Out of the Box" Learning Opportunities The traditional classroom exposes you to little more than what the teacher wants to teach and expose you to. It is, essentially, a closed box. Online, you're always just a few clicks and keystrokes away from the richest source of information in our history: the Internet. And on demand! This gives YOU the power to control and direct your learning, with the teacher being more of a guide than a dictator. Which is how it should be! |
