text: The at-school social setting enables creativity and builds cooperation and teamwork skills. The face-to-face aspect of in-class instruction is taken away by online school. The different and almost lax environment makes it easy for peers to hide behind each other and avoid hands on experiences with their instructor. When students think they have been given the opportunity to "take advantage" of the system, they take it. Little do they know, they are harming and depriving themselves of a valuable education by being coy and timid in the class. In a real school setting, they would be easily seen and helped by their teacher without having to be shy or scared.
