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 contact 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 distances- 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 own schedules. If you have a hard
time getting motivated, this might not be the ideal educational setting for you.
Choose The Right!!! J
