text: Disractions are something that make it difficult for a student to learn, and often take them off task as to what they are supposed to be doing. I have experienced this in many of my classes over the years. For example, In my math class I sit next to my teachers desk, and there are a few students who come in during notes from previous blocks to try and understand the concept better. However, they whisper and chat during notes and it becomes difficult for me to direct my attention at the board. My attention becomes directed to what they are saying and I lose track of what was going on in the lesson being taught to me. This is a frequently occurring situation and after discussing it with other students who sit near by, they agreed it was distracting to them as well. To avoid situations like that, online school is a perfect solution. It provides students the option to choose where they want their learning enviornment to be and who they put themselves around. At home, students have the full individed attention of their teacher, which allows for them to ask questions and get one-on-one explanations of topics they may be confused on.
