text: When students are at home, there are a lot more distractions that could get them off track than when they're at school. Their cell phone and other electronic devices are right within reach, and there are not any teachers telling them to put their devices away. Students could also think that it is okay to skip the video conferences or not do the work that was assigned online; this could lead to worse problems such as failing classes because they fail to complete assignments or take assessments. To attend classes at home, people have to be very disciplined and have good time management skills. To be honest, most high school students and younger do not have that type of discipline. They get easily distracted and choose to do more fun activities instead of focusing on their schoolwork and studies. At school, students are in an environment where they are forced to do the work, and they get more done because they are also competing with the other people in their classes. This allows them to be more motivated to get work done faster and focused on what they have to complete. There are just too many distractions at home that could prevent someone from finishing what they need to and learning everything they need in school.
