text: Through distance learning, students will still be able to learn if they are not feeling well enough to go to school. If someone has the flu or a common cold it would be best for them to stay at home. When students are at home, whether it be they are sick or just tired, they will not fall behind in class. Even if students are sick and may not feel like learning, distance learning would provide an easily accessible way to learn or study that may not be too hard on students. Another pro of distance learning is when students are sick, they will not be able to pass around their sickness to other students, which would benefit the health of other students in the area. When students get sick they tend to do less work and sleep more, so it is better for it to happen to one kid, rather than a whole class of students. Distance learning would take away the possibility of getting sick from a fellow classmate which, in turn, will increase productivity for students.
