The map illustrates the main developments in the town of Springer from 1970 until the present time. Overall, a multitude of arrangements and amenities changed the city's landscape in aforementioned fifty-year period. In 1970 the pueblo consisted of a wide forest landscape with a large farmland and only a few constructions, especially 2 houses and one shop. However, Springer Town did dramatically change throughout the years. Indeed, we notice that diverse facilities were developed at the expense of the wide forest. A school has been raised in the center of the town with lots of shops all around. At the top right-hand corner, an airport has been constructed, near a small portion of forest and some flats at the top of the shops. In addition, the huge farmland has been restricted to a small area in order to allow the place to some apartments and a house lift up. there has also been a surge in the quantity of arteries between buildings than the 1970 model. Even though, we can still notice some green spaces from the past forest, especially a band of Greenland alongside- the west town. To conclude, the town of Springer changed drastically from 1970 to nowadays, moving from a rural to an urban area.

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.
