The rapid development of technology allows students to get university and college degree by taking online courses. People have different opinions toward distance learning because it brings advantages and disadvantages. I will discuss both negative and positive sides of the online courses.
Primarily, online teaching offers convenient for both students and teachers. If the teacher can take lessons online at home, this can save abundant time that spend on traffic congestion. Thus, professor can spend more time to prepare the lectures and students can have more time to focus on their homework projects. The local students can benefit from online teaching and the international students can take courses much easier than before. Foreign students can just stay in their homeland to get the same level of lessons, which have an economic benefit that saves money from renting.
However, some people claim online courses have also a lot of disadvantages compared with teaching in classroom. Without physically being in the classroom, students can fake the attendance because people can just sign in the online classroom without really listening. Meanwhile, studying online is not a good way to help teachers and students to know each other, which limits the opportunity of students to ask professor or classmates’ questions.
From my perception, the advantages that people can benefit from online course can totally outweigh the cost that students paid. Time is the most valuable things in the world, which is worth to be traded by using the opportunity to ask question. Choosing whether the traditional teaching in campus or studying at home may depend on personal needs and both of them is excellent method for studying.
Some people think history has little or nothing to offer, while others say the study of the past helps us understand the present. Discuss both viewpoints and give your opinion.

To begin, a significant change in education has led students around the world to obtain knowledge, either in the theoretical or the practical field. Generally speaking, many universities in the world have provided a good system in education with a purpose to improve the quality of education offered to their students. To make a good system to be more implemented, universities commonly give students time to gain experience in the practical field. The opportunity could be a program to encourage students in applying their theoretical knowledge in practice.
The need for better progress for today and the future is one of the reasons many students are looking for well-known companies to do outside class learning. Many efforts must be done to get a good place to work. And, by this process, students are often faced with daunting choices for determining companies. Frankly, there are many steps that they must be dealing with recruitment, it could be a long process of recruitment. Besides that, the situation that students face will be more complicated when they must deal with the visa procedures in the country of destination.
The situation above is often experienced by students who are willing to do a graduate fellowship abroad. As the impact, the situation is successfully created demands on providing the service to those students. Furthermore, Many internship business providers were established to help and solve a long process of placement. The company has the sole purpose of providing a good placement for international and local students.
Students often feel reluctant to do internships since they are afraid of doing menial tasks. Those menial tasks such as making copies or making coffee are not able to fulfill their high expectation. Due to students’ expectation is not only about doing menial tasks, but they are also highly expected to have meaningful experiences which enable them to apply the hard and soft skill. Those experiences provide many opportunities for their future, real-world experiences, networking, time management, and career foundations.
To work in companies, students have experiences to work for hands-on with the real business. Also, a good working place will provide an opportunity for students preparing for their priorities direction. Generally speaking, the people in companies will help interns by giving direction to their job. Students will receive guidance during their probation to achieve good performances. In general, an Internship is a way to test drive jobs for students, whether they can pursue their goals or explore different career options.
Networking is often given by companies to students to gain new connections and learn how to communicate professionally. Many students expect this opportunity to explore their ability in communication as well as building companies’ connection. As students expect to meet business professionals in their field, networking is a proper place to practice their communication skills to bring a positive impact to companies.
Time management will train students to be better at managing themselves and for the company. They won’t be able to survive in the company if they do not set up priorities. On the other side, they also must make all tasks is well organized, for example finishing tasks on deadlines, handling phone calls or managing day-off to break or get permission. As a conclusion, Students must notice how crucial time management in global business as it makes tasks become well organized.
They expect a graduate fellowship can be a career foundation for their future. They perceive that choosing the right path will help them to set up their next path. Most students choose companies based on the linearity of interest and prospects. As a conclusion, students are willing to do the internship with the hope to improve their ability to work for their next step in life.
A company is planning to invest in a new training program to enhance employee skills and productivity. The management team has to decide between two different approaches. Some people support that Develop online courses that employees can complete at their own pace, offering flexibility and convenience is better to consider while other believe that Organize in-person workshops led by expert trainers, providing hands-on experience and immediate feedback will be the better option.
