text: Anyone who has gone to high school in the United States would say that there is lots of drama involved. In the age of technology, there is now drama stemming from social media that always seems to unravel once the drama reaches school. Taking an online class from home would separate classes from the drama building up at school, as the classes would be taught online. For instance, if drama that initiated on social media broke out into a fight at school, someone taking an online class would not be participating in any of it, as they would not be at school, but would still be learning. Taking the drama out of learning could alleviate the stress that some students have when at school because of an issue surrounding their friend group. Stress is a main cause for students falling behind or not focusing on their school work, as they are thinking about something else and not doing work when they should be. Taking an online course from home would allow students to free their mind of drama and focus on their learning.
