As I stated earlier, the goal of the education system should be to strive to see us, the students, excel so that we may be college, career, and citizen ready. I believe their is no better way of doing that than to be taught responsibility. Through this form of education, students will be shown how to be responsible, mainly due to the fact that there will not be a teacher over them every day reminding them of the due date. Students will have to remember the due date and manage their time accordingly. Distance learning also ensures that students are paying attention. In traditional school, teachers are required to put in a certain amount of grades so that the grade book can "balance". With the online style of learning students are tasked with completing the assignments in accordance with the unit at hand and will only have to do work pertaining to that. It cuts time for both the students and the teachers. Obviously, distance learning puts students in a a stage of responsibility.
