text: Some people may counter this viewpoint in many ways. For instance, students are better able to learn in their home because they are comfortable. It is true that students are able to be more comfortable at home by having a choice in what they wear, where they sit, or when they take the classes, but this is often a negative factor. Being too comfortable can be distracting and it does not benefit the learning experience. The brain tells the body that it is at home and it can cause the mind to be less focused. Also, as students attend school, they begin to become more accustomed to the environment there and it becomes more comfortable to them. Another viewpoint is that students will have fewer distractions at home. While there may not be other students there, there are pets, family, and objects that can be destructive to learning and attention.
