In this assignment, the topic being written about is the advantages and disadvantages of E-learning. E-learning is learning utilising technology , such as phones , tablets and computers/laptops. In order to access educational lessons rather than a traditional classroom. This is an important topic because , E-learning has taken over and become the new norm since the COVID-19 pandemic triggered . Which led to everyone having to social distance and stay at home . Making it impossible and unethical for people to go into schools. This essay will portray both negative and positive aspects of E-learning. For example how it could have effected people badly or even how it became a lot more convenient For each individual partaking in E-learning.The first advantage of E-learning is affordability. Since E-learning has started both students and teachers have had the privilege of not spending money on transportation and real estate(Steph Puri 2018). Which are the two major costs that are spent when attending college in person. As students had to pay for transport going and coming home from education or if they traveled by car they would have to pay for parking. In addition to being able to access all the materials online for free , asmany times as you want . Rather than having to go and purchase resources on multiple occasions. Having it all online is more efficient.Secondly , gain of confidence is another advantage brought by E-learning for shy kids. E-learning has encouraged shy kids to open up more in their online lessons and take part. As they are in their comfort zone at home without any class, teacher and student pressure. E-learning has also benefits students with anxiety as they can learn at their own pace and study without social drama (achieve academy 2020).Lastly, another advantage due to E-learning is the increased access&reach. Now that E-learning is on technology , which can be accessed on your phone , tablet .laptop or computers. With connection, all students can their online lessons any where in the world no matter the location . And a physical class required students to go in to school , so if students are not feeling as well they can still access their lessons online without missing any materials . However physically going to school they wouldn’t be able to in order to not contaminate other student, which led to low attendance and missed materials. On the other hand there is also disadvantages to E-learning , The first reason being technology issues. Even thought internet penetration has grown over 12 months , students can still encounter Internet problems . For example if they live in a small town or an area that doesn’t have a lot of service they can have difficulties connection to internet.( Lisa Plitnichenko 2020) Especially for those who live in a shared accommodation and the internet capacity is low , this can be a problem as all student are now partaking in E-learning.Another disadvantage of E-learning is focus deficit. As students are in their homes or some might have gone away but are still connecting to their virtual lectures . There is a high chance of many getting distracted and losing focus due to long periods of time . For example if they are home and having family member , that is a distraction especially if the family members need to be tend to , as many are in a home environment they can get sleepy and be uses they isn’t physically students and teachers around to tell them they are sleepy , the students can fall asleep durning lessons and lastly because is a long period of time just siting on their desk at home they will feel like doing errands at home and leave the desk.
