Within the past year, many students all over the world have switched to doing their schooling online. Some prefer this new virtual school, while others stay loyal to traditional education. Which do you think is better: traditional or online education?
As much as online school (well technically I only did online uni) removed things like me being terrified of physical human contact it was also extremely difficult to concentrate in lessons, homework would be set and I’d just completely miss it.
For me personally, I do so much better in an online setting for school. I always have. I know for a lot of people, traditional schooling is better, but for me I prefer online so much more. I have a better routine and I take in the information better.
Personally, I really don’t like online school. I find it super hard to concentrate during my classes and I find that I’m putting off work way more than I used to.
there’s pros and cons to both but i prefer traditional schooling myself
as some of y’all pointed out, paying attention is harder like this (which is a big issue to me since i already struggled with paying attention in normal classes), and generally i don’t like the environment i have at home to study?
my productivity and mental health have plummeted since we started remote learning
one good thing, thought, is that -as a chronically ill person- online classes have made it easier for me to access to class or recording if i’m having a Bad health day
Ok so I am autistic which means already that my experience is different to the majority XD
At home, there is so little noise stimulation (compared to at school) that its so much easier to just get my work done without panicking or having a meltdown because of all the overlapping noises. As well as that, when listening to the teachers, being at home allows me to stimulate myself in other ways so that I can actually concentrate, instead of trying to listen through a rlly thick haze of boredom and sensory overwhelm. On top of that, I was able to take breaks when I got stressed and stay in an environment that was semi-comfortable for me.
The only real drawback was that (a) I never got to escape from my parents and (b) I had no contact with my friends. Both of these things were pretty depressing (no I do not take that word lightly), but I feel that if we continued online learning post-covid, then the situation in that case would improve
If covid was back in the time when I use to go to school, I doubt I would’ve coped well with online studying so I prefer traditional education.
