2. Online Class It is a very flexible learning method that allows students to study solely via the internet on their computer at home , or wherever they see fit.

3. Advantages of online classes CONVENIENT Location does not matter as online classes can be attended from any place as per student’s choice. TIME FREEDOM Extra Classes in online mode can be scheduled at any time by the teacher after discussing timings with the students. COMPARATIVELY CHEAPER They are comparatively cheaper because the travelling and the accommodation cost is totally ruled out.

4. TIME SAVING There is no need to travel to the classroom or the coaching center , so it actually saves a lot of time. RECORDED LECTURES The recorded lectures are the treasure as these can be viewed any time if the student has any doubt or if he/she misses the lecture.

5. DISADVANTAGES OF ONLINE CLASSES ISOLATING Online classes can become isolating as there is lack of social interactions online. NO SENSE OF COMPETITION The spirit of competition among students is very less because the student to student engagement is very low in the online mode. FALSE HEALTH IMPACTS Constantly sitting in front of computer screen can cause eye problems and can also lead to poor body posture.

6. EASE OF CHEATING The chances of cheating in online mode are very high due to lack of proper monitoring as the invigilator is not physically present. LACK OF RESOURCES Children with less resources cannot get their hands on online education. DISTRACTIONS There are no classmates around but still there are lot of distractions like social media , TV, playing games on phone and family can be even distracting sometimes.

7. Offline class It is the traditional learning method in which the students needs to go to the classroom and attend the class face to face with the teacher.

8. Advantages of offline classes ENVIROMENT Offline classes provide us the environment we need to concentrate on studies and the infrastructure and facilities necessary like libraries , labs etc. DISCIPLINE The class is very disciplined as the teacher is always checking if the student is indeed focused on the class and not doing anything else. COMPEPTIVE ATMOSPHERE There are spontaneous debates , exchange of ideas and answering of questions in the class which creates a sense of competition among students.

9. CO CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES With the ongoing offline classes students can also opt for co-curricular activities physically on the campus in which they are interested. NO REQUIREMENT OF EQUIPMENT There is no requirement of internet or computer in a offline class only physical presence is required. EFFECTIVE EVALUATION The chances of cheating are less due to physical presence of invigilator so assessment of the student can be done effectively by written examination.

10. Disadvantages of offline classes WASTAGE OF TIME Students needs to travel to the classroom which wastes a lot of time and energy which can be used in any other productive work and student also get less time for self study. NO RECORDED LECTURES As there are no recordings of lectures present onboard if a student misses a lecture it can break the flow of understanding of the subject which ultimately leads to huge backlog.

11. COMPARATIVELY EXPENSIVE Attending offline classes can be a little more expensive for students who hails from a place where no educational institution is present as they have to pay daily travel expenses and accommodation expenses etc. SCHEDULING OF EXTRA CLASSES In online mode a teacher can schedule an extra class at any time but this is not possible in offline mode because everyone has to work in limited timings of the institution. DISTRACTIONS Distractions are present here also , you can easily get distracted by gossips and jokes of your friends in your peer group.

12. CONCLUSION “NOTHING CAN BE PERFECT” As we had discussed both of them had their own advantages and disadvantages even though what can be called “advantage” and ”disadvantage” depends on one’s point of view. One might prefer a type of learning rather than the other according to their needs and availabilities . Which is Better? It is very difficult question to answer as there are many different aspects.
