text: Due to the lack of a teacher presence and of participation in a classroom, I believe that teens would not benefit from receiving education from home. Without a teacher, who has been trained for years, a student cannot focus on his or her work, and can fall behind other teens who are the same age. And without a personal experience in a classroom, students who take online classes won't be able to learn from mistakes or interact and gain feedback from teachers and peers. Schools were made to be a learning environment for children, so that they can get ready for life after school. But when you stay at home, you don't know how to be prepared.A student is late for class because there was an accident on her street. She would have been on time if she took the class online. Students would benefit from being able to attend classes online in their homes. Online courses would benefit students because they are less likely to be late or miss classes, they will have more free time and take more classes, and because students with physical disabilities wouldn't have to try and navigate the halls and campus of the school.
