Default Online Verses Traditional Learning

I was wondering everyone's feeling here I have done both but try to take all classes on line that I can although it is much more difficult since you do not have the benefit of the lecturer i prefer it do to time restraints with running a business and raising two daughters.

It's been a long time since I was a student but I have taken some online studies in recent years. I find it difficult to do so much online reading because my eyes get really tired. A younger person might not have that problem. I do like learning at my own pace though.

That is what i love most about it, the fact you can learn at your own pace and i am a mom of two young daughters and i can be home with them but still pursuing my education it is a win win situation.

I agree that pc is also one cause of having sight problems. I have also slowly problem with my eyes especially if I sit longer infront of pc. I donīt use anything as protector if I sit in my pc. I think itīs time for me to make actions regarding my problem.

I honestly think it depends on the topic. I took Macro Economics online and I understood everything fine and can explain it better then my friends who took it at school. Now for math classes I would much rather take it at school so I can ask the teacher for help when I do not understand things.

I have never tried online courses but I think I prefer traditional learning myself. I like to be able to take notes & if I have any problems or questions.. I'd wanna be able to ask the professor.

I like online courses they give me more time flexibilty. Around half of my classes are online and that suits me just fine because it lets me do some online jobs while I'm "studying"
