The Advantages and Disadvantages of Online Classes

The first advantage of online class is maximum autonomy. As you know, we can use the internet any where and at anytime. Thus, time and place are not so important for online class. Also, because smartphones are small and light, you can study anywhere you want, whether you are on the move, or even eating. Also, you can regulate how to spend your study time. If you are a schedule-oriented person, you may find yourself suited for online for online classes.

On the other hand, online classes have several disadvantages. First, there is a lack of compulsory communication. As autonomy increases, the compulsory participation in class decreases. When you are tired or a little sick, you may find online classes intolerable. Because people who are not well scheduled find difficulty performing well in their online classes, they may not progress well.

Despite these advantages and disadvantages, online classes as a whole are doing well. At first, there were simultaneous users who could not load the page or log in, but as time went by, these problems were remedied.
