Online
Learning and Face to Face Learning
To get the best education is the
goal for everyone, nowadays there are more than one way to study and attend
college there are the traditional way and there are the new way by using the
internet which call online learning. Online learning mean learning done by
studying at home using computers and courses provided on the internet, it
also based on students learning in an
environment that focuses on delivering content. The definition of face to face
learning it is traditional method of education and be gathered by a total of
students in specific places such as the separation and at a specific time and
is through the teacher explains Article. there are many benefit of online
learning from them it is flexible ,the student will be more responsible ,introduced to the student to the resource of
information .
First ,the one of many things
that online learning has and face to face learning doesn’t have, is the
flexibility of the time and place of the sections , and It is very convenient
to be able to go to class anytime ,anywhere and access to the university
library 24/7, that why student choose this way to study, because of may some of them are working beside their study
,or the time doesn't suit them. Which unlike the traditional way of learning
that force the students to attend in a specific time and specific place and
that may be good for some but not for all, but if the student couldn't attend
the tutors have the right to deduct marks from the
students and also there are
no makeup class for the one they are missed .
Second, most of online learning is self learning so it makes the student
become more responsible and Independence . unlike face to face learning, open
learning makes students more independent on themselves and take the
responsibility for their study. More over that, it build the courage in them to
go to ask and discuss what they don't understand with tutor, because of some
students aren’t courage enough to go and ask the tutors , so they have to think
about how they can get the right information? ,when students thought of this
they will conclude that, they have to go and discuss what they misunderstood
with their tutor. all in all, that will teach them that no one will help them
if they won't help to improve themselves in the first place, and that will
reflux on their personal life and their career. "Students learn well when
they take responsibility for their learning."(1)
But in face to face learning as good as
that your teacher are going to be there for students everyday may make the
students be lazy and keep postponed his questions and eventually he will forget
to ask them.
Third, online learning opens the mind of the student and make them think about the new technology and how they
can get authoritative information from it. After graduating from high school,
the students used to use technology everyday for communication and for
entertainment, but they aren't aware about all the technology that are exist
and been used for study, so in online learning students will get the chance to
know it and using it like the internet which is the most widely used especially
in studying , so the students can get
information from authoritative websites. By using the internet students
can buy , sell, read, download, upload and share all the different kinds of
thing that has related or not related to their studies ;as a result, students
will have the confidence and the capable to use the new technology. In the
traditional learning the students will depend on a what their teacher said and
what inside is the book, of course they using the internet but not like the other students, and that
happen because they don't know how to bring out authorities information, so
they just ignore it and do their research depending on other resource ;as a
result, they won't back to internet as a resource of information in the future.
In conclusion there is big difference between online learning and face
to face learning in the time and place of education also in the way of studying.
I consider myself with team with online learning because of the benefits which
it back to the students and it give hands to build their personality. And
finally, my recommendation
to all of you that before you choose which way you are going to use, you have
to think first which ways it Suits you more
