The Internet and the World Wide Web have changed Education tremendously. Students now can do all their research online and do not have to go to a library to find information. We can watch videos, listen to speeches/lectures as well as find an abundance of information on the Internet to help aid in research and papers. I do not know the last time I physically went to a library to get information. Information is just available and you don’t have to wait for it. You don’t have to worry about someone having the book or the print out and have to wait for it to return.
Now, students can get an education online. Students like myself, take online classes and do not have to go to a university or a campus to go to school. This helps a lot of students who have strict time frames and cannot accommodate a classroom session in their lives. With the positives there are always negatives. Students don’t interact with other students in group projects and do not get the visual aid of a teacher teaching in front of the classroom. The internet has made education and learning a valuable tool for all ages.
