JCCS Academic Language Assessment Week 24

Online learning is an effective way to educate students.  According to Umpqua Community College, "You do not have to physically come to campus and sit in a classroom, so you could take a course from anywhere you have Internet access" (source link).  This shows that it save the student money on gas.  This also shows that students can have full time jobs and still go to school.  According to Georiga Perimiter College, "Online learning gives students greater freedom of scheduling, but it can require more self-discipline than on-campus classes" (source link).  This shows that if they are an early person they can get the school done in the morning.  This also shows that they have more freedom to see family etc.  In conclusion, online learning is an effective way of learning for students who have tight schedules.
