What are the advantages and disadvantages of online courses?

1, online learning, health and safety

During the epidemic, online classes at home can effectively avoid contact with others, which is safe and hygienic and can block the spread of infectious diseases. Especially for children, online classes have played a very good protective role.

2. Online learning is not limited by hardware.

The online class only needs a computer or a mobile phone, so it is very convenient to connect to the network. The online classroom breaks the traditional learning mode which is limited by time, place and space, and can interact with teachers and classmates in the classroom.

3. You can listen to the lecture repeatedly and play it back continuously.

In the real classroom, students may miss the knowledge points explained by the teacher for a while, while in online learning, most courses can be played repeatedly, which makes up for many shortcomings.

4. Save time on the way to school.

Especially in big cities, it has become a "landscape" for parents to take their children to various cram schools by bus and subway for a long time. I found that I could have saved so much time after taking an online class.

Disadvantages of online courses:

1, students study under the network background. Because of their enhanced autonomy, they often subconsciously pay attention to their own psychological order while ignoring the logical order of the subject itself.

2. Teachers are uneasy and unaccustomed to students' autonomous learning. They are always worried about "can students grasp the key points themselves?" "Can they understand this question?" And so on, but dare not boldly let students acquire knowledge independently, exchange and discuss independently, and explore and study answers independently. Therefore, teachers often use traditional ideas to interfere with students' learning.

3. Some online courses are often without the guidance of teachers, and 100% depends on students' self-study. Without the correct guidance of teachers, students may fail or have low learning efficiency.

Students' thinking is easily interrupted.

5. It is not conducive to emotional communication between teachers and students.
