text: .Have you ever wondered what it's like to attend school without actually leaving your house? It seems that nowadays, some schools offer distance learning as an option for students to attend classes from home by way of online or video conferencing. This may either be a temporary or permanent way of learning, depending on the case of the school and student. Although many people may view this distance learning opportunity as a good thing, I see it as negative to the learning experience. I do not think students would benefit from being able to attend classes from home because the bond between teachers and students would be lost, cheating would become far more easy for students to accomplish, and students may be too easily distracted in a more familiar and comfortable environment.
