We have been using "distance learning" because we have to. We have Coronavirus to thank for that. However, people have been using this platform to take classes for years. Some students in college take classes online because it is cheaper and more time efficient for them. Some working parents take online classes because there is no way they would be able to find the time to leave their jobs and families, even for a few hours a week, to physically go back to school to get a better degree so they take online classes instead. I myself have taken a few online classes over the years so I have personally experienced the pros and the cons of distance learning. Some people love it. Some people despise it. For today's blog post, I only require two sentences, but they must be well thought out, well-written sentences. Tell me...What is the single best thing about distance learning? What is the single worst thing about distance learning? (ex. The best thing about distance learning is...")

The best thing about distance learning is that you get to be in your comfy home while you are learning because you have more room to relax, you don't have to wear uniforms all the time, and you get to get away from the outside world if that's bothering you. The worst thing about distance learning, however, at this point of time, is that you are sort of all over the place because everyone's doing different things at the same time, which can lead you to having questions and not knowing who to turn to, and you will start to miss interacting with other people over time.

During distance learning the best thing about it is that you can be comfortable with no uniform and be in your sleepers. The most worst thing is that you tend to get distracted a lot and get of track while working cause I do a lot. I hope that I can stop procrastinating and focused more on my work.

The best thing about distant learning is being able to do the assignments whenever you want to do them. The worst thing about distant learning is the fact you have to control your time limit over certain things, and that can damage your whole score.

We have been doing distance learning for about a week or so and this has been an experience that has its pros and cons. the hardest thing for me is the fact that I can't concentrate. The good thing about distance learning is that I just enjoy the fact that I can work in comfy clothes.

I have many pros and cons about distance learning.The pro of having distant learning is I could take a break whenever I want to. The con of distance learning is that we don’t get taught in person to understand a lesson more.

I would say the best thing about distance learning is getting to sleep longer, which provided energy for me the next day. The worst thing about distance would be how difficult it is to concentrate because of the many distractions at home.

Distance Learning can be a good and a bad thing. The good thing about distance is that you can do your activities whenever you want. You can still be in your pajamas while doing your work. You can also play music while doing your work. A bad thing about distance learning is that you don't thought in person. For me, I feel more comfortable if it was being taught to me in person. Because I don't usually understand it unless I am being taught in person. I also like being in a room full of people, talking and doing their work, and you don't get to see your friends while doing distance learning.

During this time, there are both pros and cons for online learning. One huge pro, is being at home. We all feel better and more comfortable at home, which is a good environment for learning. But a huge con, is getting used to all of this. We have never done anything like this before, and it will take a long time to get used to.

There are multiple pros and cons of distant learning. One major pro is that we can wear whatever we want. I can be comfortable, unlike in school where it is required to wear a skirt for girls. A major con in distance learning is procrastination. I always tend to find myself getting distracted.

There are many pros and cons with Distance Learning. One Pro is that I can take a break, or I can just get all of my work done in one sitting. A con is that the understanding aspect of lessons is a little annoying. I am so used to you or Mrs. Reiman explaining the lesson.

The single best pro about distance learning is that I could stay at home and relax. The worst thing about distance learning is that all the classwork and homework is combined so it seems like a lot of work.

The only pro about distance learning is that you get wear to comfortable clothes, instead of a uniform that neither looks good nor feels comfy. The only con that I could think of is probably managing time to do or hand in assignments. Everything has a due date, and you need to keep up with it in order to pass.

One good thing about this distance learning is that we have the ability to be more comfortable while doing classwork. One bad thing about this is that it can be more difficult to understand since no one is there to explain more.

The pros of distance learning is that we can do all of our work in the comfort of our home. The cons of distance learning is that if we don't know something we either have to email a teacher which can take a while to get a reply or search it up on the internet which you may not get an answer for.
