text: Secondly, if students were to attend classes at home, there wouldn't be the same rigid structure in their learning experience. When students go to school they fall into a routine: waking up at the same time, attending classes in the same order, and eating lunch with the same people. Having class at home doesn't consist of any routine or structure because there isn't anything or anyone there to be held accountable by. At school, there is the bell or the possibility of receiving a "tardy" in a class that keeps students accountable to sticking to routine. In a home setting, there is nothing that would motivate the student to continue to pursue their education. Furthermore, in cases where distance learning has been tested out before, results show that students tend to fall behind on assignments and assessments. The reasoning for this being that the lack of structure in their everyday learning becomes detrimental to the student's chances of success in the class. Distance learning students would not benefit from attending class from home because the lack of structure and routine in their day is enough damage done.
