text: There may be some consequences, though, when a student works from home, it can be easy for them to slack off without a teacher to remind them when due-dates are. Students who work at school are constantly reminded that they have to get back to work when they slack off, but when they are at home, there is no teacher there to tell them that they are falling behind. Another problem that could occur is that a student could experience a technical difficulty and end up missing a test or project that was due, which could damage their grade.
