text: First, I believe that distance learning could have a major role in stopping the spread of sickness. Every year in schools, sickness spreads through the students. Sick students chose to come to school despite being very sick because they dont want to get behind on their school work. Missing one day can create at least a week of makeup work for students depending on the intensity level of their class. So understandably these sick students decided to go to school. They then infect other students. This process is almost incurable and is a continual occurrence in every High School. However, Distance learning would provide a way for students to attend class from home. This would allow students to stay up on their work, while not infecting other students. As a much more serious sickness is seeming to infect our nation, distance learning could provide a way for all students to learn from home. This could temporarily provide health in communities, and ultimately result in a healthier nation.
