If you are still “twisted” as to whether online learning is comparable to traditional classes or not, don’t ignore the following Top 8 reasons why online learning is “small but mighty”.

1. Save on learning cost

Taking a long break from the epidemic and switching to studying online makes you miss school, friends, and the canteen. But it is undeniable that studying online has helped you save quite a lot of costs, from living expenses such as travel, food to tuition fees, materials, and facilities. You can save a lot of money when you study online at home, and the extra costs will go to electricity and Internet bills.

You can completely access the classroom anytime, anywhere in the house as long as it is convenient, comfortable and the network configuration is strong enough.

Being able to sit in an ideal learning space that you are interested in also helps you get motivated and inspired to learn, the ability to absorb knowledge and the interaction is also more active.

3. Increase interactivity during the pandemic

For those introverts Gen Z and shy to talk, online learning is a paradise because you will be more comfortable interacting with teachers than learning directly in class.

Some special fields and specialties will have a huge library of documents. Having to arrange, memorize and carry too many books that are sometimes missing or missing when going to class is definitely a “nightmare” for generations of students.

Therefore, online learning is widely accepted by Generation Z. With the help of online learning software, you can store a large amount of study materials, lecture notes and message history in an easier, more scientific and understandable way. All will now be “encapsulated” in the computer and you can just open and search anytime you want to review content after class. At the same time, students at all levels can understand the knowledge better.

With a youthful and innovative lifestyle, Gen Z has taken advantage of studying online with many fun online “tricks” to create a fun learning atmosphere for everyone, while making themselves feel more excited to learn in these difficult epidemic conditions.

When all activities gradually move to the online form, you can easily arrange group meetings with more members. At the same time, individuals in the group can completely freely express their opinions without worrying about others complaining or judging them.
