Paper, pencils, sharpies, and notebooks are the kinds of supplies that are required to have in a classroom. These can reach up to one-hundred dollars, but taking an online class can save half that amount. Sure, spending money on technology on the online course can be expensive, but at least everything else is free online. There are so many mandatory supplies that is needed to buy, and at the end of the year, most of the supplies were not even opened from the package. Previous years ago, students then never had technology and they had to find access to books and supplies. Times have changed so much and now technology is provided for students to type notes online and look up information on the internet. By attending school for many years, taking classes online would minimize at least a thousand dollars from all the supplies.
