 * The Classroom: Virtual vs. Physical**


 * Write a response to this dichotomy. What are your thoughts on E-Learning?**

School is a fundamental aspect in ones education. By attending classes, students not only prepare for their career but build their sense of character. At a very young age, the cyclical routine of school goes something like this: wake up, eat breakfast, get ready for school, arrive at school, learn, hang out with friends and go home. If we begin to look at attending classes virtually, most will agree, that a part of them seems missing, as if they're lacking something. Although virtual classes is cost and time efficient, people fail to see the bigger picture that is losing one's individuality. We are taken to school not only to learn but to experience life for what it is. The beauty of having a routine, building ones character based on experiences, forming strong relationships with others, learning other people's cultures, etc.. These are all vital in human development and the means of a meaningful life.

Taking away that experience will alter lives. It's unsure why people feel the need to rush all the time because time is not limited. They forget to stop and breath to take it all in. And in a virtual class- people will fail to do so. As a student, having my own laptop and access to internet, I confess that I do not use my time wisely. Instead of homework I spend countless hours surfing the web. If we allow virtual classes to take place, who's to say the students will use their time wisely.
