Reflection:
In my review, distance education has more advantages than disadvantages. For
example, I can easily go online and take my course while I drink coffee or tea in my
home. Since I feel comfortable at my home, it is a unique opportunity for me. If I dont
get distance education, I have to drive to school and it sometimes takes longer time than
I think. Disadvantage of the distance education is, I think, I dont have a campus life and
it affects motivation. If a student gets education on campus, he or she can socialize with
friends and have conversation about teachers and lessons. These conversations are
important for students since they keep them fresh and motivated.
