The events of 2020 forced society to adapt to various extremely uncomfortable and unusual situations and look for alternative ways to communicate, work, and study, mostly due to the pandemic and quarantine. It allowed people to see the other side of online learning and understand that it is not far behind traditional education. Thus, leaving the comfort zone, you can find many advantages and opportunities where we had not seen them before or did not want to see them.
There is a quantity number of benefits of online learning. It is worth starting with the fact that online learning has long been practiced in all developed countries. However, many people were skeptical about this, claiming that there are few advantages of online education.
Furthermore, speaking about the advantages of online learning, we can immediately note this mode's practicality. Learning online is practical in the sense that you can be anywhere. The main thing is that there is access to the Internet and a device from which you can enter an online lesson, whether it's a coffee shop, soccer field, gym, or a cozy bed at home. No need to waste time, money, and effort on the road. In other words, it is very convenient. Moreover, online learning relieves the student of any framework and limitations. No one will scold you for your appearance, lack of shape, notebook, or the presence of a cleansing mask on your face during the lesson.
Since we are all accustomed to smartphones and electronic "devices" have become our integral part, online learning is not terrible for our modern society. We are used to chatting and seeing each other online, taking part in business transactions via Skype, so what prevents us from studying online? Thanks to the habit developed over the years not to let go of the phone and process a large amount of information from social networks and other platforms, information and educational material presented through an online lesson will not be difficult to digest and master. Therefore, the student will not feel much difference between absorbing information through a traditional class and an online lesson. It will allow the student to feel like a fish in water when learning and mastering new skills online.
Another advantage of online learning is that a teacher himself often records classes so that students always have the opportunity to review the lesson, remember if something is forgotten, and master the material better. A lesson conducted by the traditional method cannot be reviewed unless someone took a video camera and recorded everything. In online classes, you can always return to the lesson you need and remember what you have passed even after 3 years. And recording an online lesson is much more comfortable, and you don't need a video camera.
We have seen the main advantages of online learning and are now ready to go and gnaw the granite of science remotely. But where to gnaw? Where to learn to program online?
