Since the ancient Greeks that people go to school, where they have a teacher who shares his knowledge. But, since the invention of the computer and, after that, the Internet, a new type of learning appeared:
e-learning. Is it good or bad? Like everything else it has its own advantages and disadvantages.
Use the Internet to have an online course has many advantages. First of all, you can have lessons and work at your own pace. Secondly, you do not have to spend money on gas or tickets to go to the course. Moreover it is more convenient for people, who do not have time to go to the lessons. As they do not have to be in a certain place at a certain time. Furthermore people have access to a range of subjects, which they can choose and study.
On the other hand, E-learning has its own drawbacks. For instance a person who does not go to a classroom might work less and it can lead people to some loneliness. Another disadvantage is that when the computer fails, the student has no way of taking lessons. Also, e-learning depends too much on technology and the student must be able to afford it.
In conclusion, we believe e-learning is an advantage, as it a way to find information so we have more time to other activities. But be careful not to get addicted because you can stop having face-to-face communication.
