Why online college classes may not be beneficial

There are pros and cons of everything. No doubt online learning has many advantages still it has some disadvantages.

The first disadvantage of the online college courses is the time management. The students are fully responsible for making their schedule.

The second thing is that when a student learns in a classroom the instructor can encourage him or her time to time. But it does not happen in online learning. The instructors can’t motivate them. While learning in a classroom student can take the help of the other students if he finds any problem while studying but in online learning he can’t take the help of other students.

Sometime student feels it very boring because he is unable to share his problems with his co-students as well as with his teachers. It is difficult for on-line student to socially interact with co-students and with instructors.

Students can’t make their continuity and it leads to the failure sometimes. The other disadvantage of online college classes is the high cost of the course. The courses which are provided online may be costly as compared to the regular courses.

A student who does not have an appropriate knowledge of using internet and computer finds himself unable to get the benefit of on-line classes. All the students are not responsible. Some students do work only under someone’s supervision. But in online classes there is no one for supervision. No one encourages the students to take test or to complete assignments.
