Today, web-based technological advances allow people to study at home through distance-learning programs. I believe
this

 method can not be as good as going to class in person,
although

 some people might think there is no difference between online
classes
Use synonyms
 and traditional
classes
Use synonyms
. It is reasonable to think that taking an online class can have the same impact on
students

 as attending a college in person.
Teachers

 can post significant files related to

 online, and
students

Moreover

, as access to electronic textbooks is becoming more widespread,
students

 can make notes on them just like on paper. From that point of view, distance-learning programs seem no different from traditional

.
However

, in my opinion, attending lectures online cannot be as good as going to school in person.
To begin

 with, online education does not allow for face-to-face conversations between
students

 and

, which is extremely important in college education.
Teachers

 cannot adjust their teaching speed and methods by judging

Additionally

teachers

 may not be able to find out immediately if some

 are not focusing on listening.
Besides

,
students

 usually cannot get beneficial feedback if they are taking

 online. When
courses

 are going on, there are definitely some
students

 who have plenty of problems. But they will find that asking for help is more difficult compared to traditional

. The efficiency of online communication is far lower than face-to-face conversation. Under those circumstances,
students

 can hardly achieve great academic performance. In conclusion, though distance-learning programs are becoming increasingly popular, the
courses

 cannot be as good as the traditional way.
