5 Things ONLINE LEARNING has that CLASSROOms Dont
by Anthony Garcia
anywhere, anyone, anytime, anyhow
1.) Convenience - You can do it from pretty much anywhere. No getting dressed, finding parking and sitting in an auditorium.
2.) Motivation- Students learn better when they are self-motivated, and online platforms force students to manage their own time and assignments.
3.) Versatility - Increased availability of free learning tools for students, such as the new school “University of the People.“
4.) Access - Student populations who may not do well in traditional classroom settings can thrive in an online environment
5.) Price – Many new online platforms are increasingly affordable, a welcome change in higher education.

Great points.
I teach online for new Canadians who live in remote areas without access to a classroom. Another reason for your list! Thanks for sharing.
