Online VS Traditional Schooling
Which Is Better?
2
Recall
  • Many of us can recall the days when traditional
    schools were kids taking a bus ride to a
    brick-and-mortar school in the early morning
    hours, studying at their desks, and doing the
    same workbooks and assignments as their
    classmates in a class.
  • However, with the advent of online tuitions
    increasingly, students and parents are asking why
    schools have to adhere to the same rigid
    structure.

3
Recall
  • Following are those reasons Why Online Education
    is better than Traditional Schools.
  • More flexibility for your child's style of
    learning
  • More parental involvement
  • Customized programming
  • Day-to-day scheduling flexibility
  • Access to your child's public education anyplace
    in the world

4
Parental Involvement
  • In a traditional school, the involvement of
    parents is usually restricted to reviewing
    homework attending parent-teacher conferences, or
    leading field excursions.
  • A lot of parents are absent from the conversation
    about academic progress until the final report
    card arrives. That leaves students and parents
    with very little opportunity to make corrections.
  • Parents who attend online schools have various
    options to be engaged in their child's education.

5
Parental Involvement
  • As Learning Coaches, parents (or other adults who
    are trusted) could choose to assist with learning
    by guiding the school's routine or by reviewing
    lessons and grades whenever they want.
  • They can also consult with online school teachers
    during regular meetings and, if required, take on
    an active role in providing feedback on students'
    attendance, progress, and understanding.
  • Although every family is learning differently,
    teachers who want to become an online teacher
    agree that it's a good idea to help with
    organizing as well as time-management, as well as
    to encourage students, and reward the students
    for their effort.

6
Scheduling Flexibility
  • Parents have almost no control over the
    traditional school's schedule or learning
    environment. Parents who attend online schools
    have the ability to set their daily routine and
    are able to create a positive learning
    environment that their child enjoys.
  • Students who attend online schools are able to
    participate in certain scheduled events, for
    example, live-time lessons using the classroom
    virtually. However, they can enjoy more
    flexibility regarding how and when they complete
    their coursework. This allows them to take
    advantage of family time and activities, travel,
    sports, and many other activities without missing
    school or getting behind in their classes.

7
Personalized Learning
  • In terms of flexibility, traditional schools
    don't provide as much individualization. The
    reason isn't that teachers aren't willing or
    dedicated to supporting students individually.
  • However, the logistical challenges of managing a
    class packed with students make it nearly
    impossible. This is why traditional education is
    often a "one-size-fits-all" approach, with less
    opportunities for individual instruction. Schools
    may offer honors and accelerated classes for
    students who qualify. However, course offerings
    could be restricted.
  • Students who attend online school have many
    options for personalization. Teachers can offer
    additional support to improve specific skills,
    and they can tailor instruction to the individual
    student's strengths or interests as well as their
    way of learning. If needed, they can give
    one-on-one help via telephone or email, or even
    in online classrooms.

8
Personalized Learning
  • When working from home, online school students
    can progress more quickly through lessons that
    they are able to grasp, or they can take their
    time in more challenging classes.
  • Additionally, through an online school of the
    highest quality, pupils of any age may join
    online activities and clubs and select from a
    selection of electives to enrich their academic
    curriculum and further explore their pursuits.
    Parents can further customize a child's education
    by including actual-life, hands-on-based
    activities like Scouting, community service, the
    performing or fine arts into the school day.

Safe Learning Environment
  • As opposed to traditional brick-and-mortar
    schools, online schools give parents the
    opportunity to manage their child's learning
    space. Parents can be sure that their child has a
    secure and secure environment that is free of the
    pressures of social pressure and bullying that
    can be found in traditional classrooms.
  • Furthermore, learning at home can provide fewer
    distractions than in a traditional classroom in
    which students concentrate more quickly and get
    the most value from their time.

10
Safe Learning Environment
  • In addition to these benefits, many pleased
    families who attend online schools say that their
    children's education at home can be incredibly
    satisfying.
  • Parents love witnessing the "aha!" moment when
    students grasp a new concept or solve a problem.
    They also say that studying together makes them
    closer as families.
