text: Generic_Name wakes up every day at six in the morning to do chores, then to get ready for school. By seven in the morning he is already on his way towards our high school. He has to get there early in order to receive help from his homework he was working on last night. By the time school starts he is already three hours into his day. Once his seven hour school is over he has to drive another forty minutes home, just to do more chores, and to start on his homework for the following day. Generic_Name has to drive a pick up truck because of the area he lives in, which means that his gas mileage is pretty low. He has to get a new tank of gas every three days or so. It costs him forty dollars to fill up his tank. With his long commute to school, he doesn't have time to get a part time job to pay for his gas himself, instead his parents have to pay around eighty dollars a week just so he can go to school. Distance learning would solve many of these problems that Generic_Name is going through. It would allow Generic_Name to get an education even though he lives a great distance from the school. With modern day technology we have the ability to Skype, face time, or even video conference into classrooms in order to provide everyone with a fair and equal opportunity to get an education. Distance learning would help to provide the right of education to everyone.
