ONLINE VS OFFLINE CLASSEES BY MASOOM MANDY

INTRODUCTION

As the world has advanced towards technology, we live in

an era where information can be acquired from any part of

the world from any place, any time and from anybody. The

newest advancement in technology is the one where

education is being transmitted in the form of bits and bytes

across the world. A student who can only dream of being a

part of a university located in the other part of the world can

now stay at home and study the course that the college has

to offer.

RESPONSE BARRIER

If there is an issue with the subject or anything else,

immediate aid cannot be assured. As it is online, a query

sent will be answered only if there is someone online on the

other end. If not, the student has to wait until a response

comes back.

NO INTERACTION

There is no interaction with others. It is an isolated form of

learning.

ONLINE VS OFFLINE CLASSES

NO REAL-TIME STUDY

Many things can be learnt form a peer, but in this form,

there is no option for the same in "real-time" (unless there is

a web chat or a forum where the others attending the class

can discuss the subject).

CONCLUSIONS

Therefore, each has its own pros and cons. When the

distance and funding is considered, online classes are much

better than offline classes. If there is no issue with the

distance and expenses, offline classes are a much better

choice. Hence, as per a student's convenience these types of

classes are effective in their own ways.
