As technology constantly advances, besides traditional classroom learning, a new
kind of learning has emerged, online learning. Though classroom learning and internet-
based teaching are relatively similar, significant dissimilarities existed in the organization,
the schedule, and the interaction between the teachers and the students.
Firstly, in terms of organization, in offline classes, the students and the educator
perform in a classroom and use several facilities to assist the teacher and ensure the
students’ proficiency in academic progress, such as the blackboard to write, a big screen for
presentations, et cetera. On the other hand, the main gadgets need for online learnings are
just a phone or a laptop connected to the internet and education software installed on the
device. Students subscribing to online courses can attend classes online, learning through
videos, or documents given by the lecturer.
Secondly, the way of arranging the schedule of classroom learning and online
learning may differ from one to another. In classroom classes, the timetable is unlikely to
fluctuate, which can provide the students with a sense of stability to arrange their business.
In online classes, they can have more control over their time for classes. For instance, if they
are absent from a lesson, they can watch the recording to get back on track, or when
studying through videos and documents, they can choose to study whenever they have the
time.
Finally, the interaction between the teachers and the students is also relatively
different in offline classes and online classes. For example, in classroom lectures, the
teacher can interact with students through small questions or exercises, on the contrary,
students can ask the teacher or their friends about the solutions to the problems they
encountered with. On the other hand, in virtual-classroom, learners tend to concentrate on
the lectures and if they have any problems, they can find solutions online. Additionally,
testing and assessments in offline.
In conclusion, classrooms differ in the organization, the schedule, and the interaction
between the teachers and the students. With the advancement of technology, virtual
learning is affirming its value. However, the core values of offline classes are irreplaceable.
