text: By having distance learning as an option, many disabled and mentally ill students would be more comfortable. As a person suffering from anxiety and ADHD, I find it very hard to be comfortable or adjust in a classroom setting. I can't initiate social interaction and oftentimes can't focus on what my teachers are saying. If I could take classes digitally, I could talk to other people by text, which is much easier to do than conversing in the same room. I would be able to pay attention to my teachers because it is from the comfort of my own home; additionally, I would have the option to re watch videos at my own pace should I miss anything. This will allow students who think slowly to be able to catch up with the rest of the class. Building on to that, some students are physically disabled and can't move to different places efficiently or safely. A student I know uses a big wheelchair, and another student I know always has to have medical equipment with him in case of an emergency. With distance learning, students will not have to travel to school every day. Thus, students with disabilities do not need to risk their health just to get an education. They will feel much safer learning and interacting from a secure and comfortable location. Thus, disabled and mentally ill students would be more comfortable if they could attend classes from home.
