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.

In past games, personality was not ideal in our society, but in the 21st century, their minds changed and sportspeople became heroes and people started following them. In my belief sports persons get lots of extra benefits neither faces any problems. We will discuss in detail what benefits players get in their sideline of games.
Many cricketers are known for their performance, for example, Shahid Afridi made the fastest century at Sharjah Stadium. After that, he became very popular as a game winner and aggressive player. Therefore, the international cricket leagues selected Shahid Afridi at a higher salary in their teams. This is another extra income for him. It would not be wrong to say that the more famous, higher the price.

On the other hand, many of company invite well-known sportsperson as a chief guest for the popularity of events. Those types of events also highly paid. At the same time, many crickets participate in different social and awareness campaigns to influence their common man.
