Since we aren't all alike, I think the opportunity to learn online is another great resource for those who do best in this learning style. Being able to provide learners with a variety of teaching modes is one of the gifts of living in this century, in my opinion.
I absolutely agree. I also think online classes offer opportunities for people who have few other options. It is so hard to get into community colleges now.
