This paper was prepared for English 160, College Writing, Module 8 Homework Assignment taught by Instructor Daryl Morazzini

In today’s world it is an unspoken requirement that anybody who wishes to succeed must have a college degree. This means physically going to a college classroom or attending school online. Because of the sink or swim economy, it is not always possible to give up a job, or leave your family behind to go to a four year university full time.

Online schooling is flexible because you can do your homework whenever it is convenient for you. If you work in the mornings, for example, you can come home in the evening and do your homework in your available time. When you don’t have to attend lectures at a campus, you are able to read through the material, which allows you to get done at your own pace, and because the courses are more concentrated on the material, the semester itself is much shorter than the semester of those attending a brick and mortar school, which makes online schooling a faster way to get a

    In reading Zephry Teachout’s article, “Will the Web Kill Colleges?” he sheds light on the differences that is taking place in how students are earning their degrees. He discussed a few key points that reflected why he thought there was a shift to online learning, they were: a) the cost of online learning is significantly low, as online qualifications cost a college less to provide , b) the quality of the education earned through online learning may not be up to par, and c) questioned the validity of the degree earned and if employers would hire an employee that earned a degree from a traditional institution over an online school, and d) the ease of online learning versus attending classes in person, and the increased attendance for those who could not afford attending traditional institutions.…

    Evaluation of Will the Web Kill Colleges

    The article brings to some interesting views on the futures of colleges and the experience that goes along with that first important step into adulthood. He brings some serious points to the argument. First, the traditional college experience versus an online college experience. Next, the quality of the online course information, as well as, having a tenured professor or an average non-degreed person teaching/monitoring a course. Then, he asks the question “Will employers take a person with an online degree just as serious as a traditional means degree?” Will they hold the same water so to speak? And finally, he weighs the pros and cons of the cost of attendance, the ability of non-traditional students to get a degree in their own time when they could not before.…

    Opinions About Online Schools

    Think about it. Are online schools really that great of an idea? Yes they provide single parents the ability to get a degree and nurture children, and yes they allow anti-social students to stay within their comfort zones, but are they really helping other college students? My personal opinion is no. I think online colleges are not as rewarding as traditional schooling.…

    Online vs. Traditional Education

    When you think of the word education, the first thought that comes to mind about this is, classrooms, books, fellow students, a teacher and an institution. Here, is where it becomes known as an individual receiving a traditional education within schools, colleges, and universities. As the population of the world increases, so too does the competition of landing the utmost perfect job that will better provide a satisfactorily productive life for individuals and families in a competitive job market world. Individuals are now given a choice that best suits their needs, and fits their lifestyles no matter what the age. While many would choose to remain with the traditional education environment, because of concerns they may not get much from an online education, the ever popular online education trend is growing. An individual who is looking to become a future student will take a good look in comparison of each setting, rules and regulations, and the learning skills each provide, and then decide what will best meet their current lifestyle and preferences. For example, an individual who is older than your normal college age level of 18-25, is a full time employee, and has a family to support; it may be best suited for this individual to look into an online education. The learning development differentiates within each individual, how that individual feels they learn best will also determine their choice of how…
