Jose D Centeno Week 6 8/24/12 Composition I – 102 Compare and contrast online learning with classroom (on-ground) learning What are the difference and the comparison between online classes and on ground classes?

In present times it is well known that community college is significantly more affordable than attendance at a four-year university and typically allows for students to remain living at home, while not having to worry about a lengthy everyday commute to class. However, because they are typically easy to attend, many people think of community college as offering a sub-par education, which limits students’ success when later attempting to develop and expand careers.

In “Can You Be Educated from a Distance”, James Barszvz begins to argue the internet-based instruction with a statistic. He points out that 34 percent and 90 percent of American colleges and larger schools started to offer “distance learning” (DL), respectively.

He talks about the format of DL and notes that face-to-face communication is limited for students and instructors (16:1). He believes that the reason students take online courses is they think it is convenient.
