text: Some people would argue that distance learning would show no benefit and would make it harder to learn material being taught to you. I disagree because it much easier to learn when you are put under the intense stress of having to keep up with everything or being put on a strict hour and a half time-line. Not only that, but sitting in a hard chair all day without being able to really move or socialize can make it much harder to concentrate. At home it is much easier to relax, as you can sit someplace comfortable and quiet and make it easier on yourself to concentrate on the assignment, or what the teacher is saying. Distance learning makes it much easier to concentrate and makes it less stressful for the students.
