Challenging Aspects of Distance Education

·      Lack of in-person interaction:  Some educators argue that both teacher-student and student-student contact are essential to learning.  In a distance-learning classroom, you may be able to participate in class discussions online in chat rooms, message boards or Web conferences – but it’s not the same as being with other students in a classroom.

·      Different levels of quality: Many distance-education programs supply an excellent learning experience, but others may not.

Research any program before signing on to make sure it’s rigorous enough. If you are choosing your own program, look into its accreditation before enrolling.

·      The need to self-start: Distance education lets you make your own schedules. If you have a hard time getting motivated, this might not be the ideal educational setting for you.

You may want to take a class that your high school doesn’t offer. Under some circumstances, you can still enroll in the class – through distance learning.

Distance education means taking a class without being physically present where it is being taught. Internet-base technology lets students participate in lecture and class sessions online from almost anywhere. Some high schools agree to recognize distance-learning credits when they don’t have the resources to offer a course themselves. Distance education is often used to increase options in rural areas and for AP ® courses.

  For you, it might mean doing self-tutorial at home in the evening, or participating I  a class that is in a class that is 1,000 miles away, along with another high school student. Check with your school counselor to see what’s available.
