Distance-learning Topic:Many people use distance-learning programmes (study material post, TV, Internet, etc.) to study at home, but some people think that it cannot bring the same benefits of attending college or university. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion? Nowadays, an increasing number of people prefer to study at home rather than learning at school or other teaching rooms. However, whether they can get as much beneficial as people those who sit in the classroom has been questioned. In my view, long-distance education has really played an important role in the contemporary teaching filed. Following the development of information technology， study has become so convenience that people can learn anywhere and anytime they want by online education, which has made the most use of time, especially for the office workers. This means that we can learn subjects on the bed, in the subway or even in the toilet. If distance-learning does not exist, we will lose those opportunities to promote ourselves. Moreover, distance-teaching is more cost-effective than face-to-face teaching. For example, varieties of lessons provided on the internet are low to nearly hundreds of Yuan or even free, which have great attraction to pupils who can not afford such expensive training fee. Besides, some lessons also have previews for people to try out and compare with others. That is not to say that the traditional education will be phased out completely. There are, of cause, numerous students intend to go to the campus, communicate with teachers and other students, which will be more vivid. People particularly who are lack of self-control, feel more efficiency by sitting in the classroom. In summary, distance-learning programmes provide lots of conveniences in our learning lives. Meanwhile, we should not neglect the importance of traditional education. Only by doing so can we master as much knowledge as we can and keep pace with the rapid development of the world.
