The advancement of technology has changed the scenario of the entire world today.

The inclusion of Internet and online services have also reshaped the functioning of almost all the industries and the education domain is no exception to that. Students now have the option of continuing their studies online from the comfort of their homes. But every thing has two aspects and so does online learning have its own pros and cons.

PROS:

Students can study from a wide range of topics and material available online at their own pace and convenient time schedule.

Students do not have to travel to the Institution to attend the classes unlike the traditional teaching method. So it saves time and keeps them safe in the current situations.Students can revisit the lectures and other study material as many times as they wish or need to.

CONS:

Online learning reduces the communication which is a major part of the offline one. So the students may not develop good communication skills.

Too much screen-time may affect eyes and pose other hazards to health. Students may also become hesitant at socializing with people in real life.

Students may miss out on the wonderful school days and larger than life learning experience which can't be encountered through desktop or mobile screens.
