Hi friends,
The other day, I had an interesting conversation with some of my friends.
They work either in education or software development,
It means they're well placed to see this trend coming into our lives.
I'm talking about online learning.
You see, even before the outbreak of coronavirus pandemic,
many people were taking online courses.
But the goal of taking those courses was different.
They were for specific education
One of my friends, a university professor, says
students now want only online education.
because it is cheaper, don't have to commute or live in the city.
They can study In-demand skills by taking online courses.
But online learning is still far from perfect.
lot of room for improvement exists
if new players can emerge on the market with superior service.
Or If they offer low prices, things could change things dramatically.
Now, I'm not saying that online education is the ultimate solution.
It has limitations.
There is lack of support as compared to traditional, in-person education.
harder to reach out to teachers for help.
But studying online a fair deal, you save time, money travel.
Also, improvements in self-guided online learning
is a skill that everyone can master.
So, you don't need professors as much as you'd think.
That's why I think online education will go fully main-stream, sooner or later.
And when that happens, self-guided learning will become more important than ever.
You can check out from internet, a self-learning online course in your field today.
If you need help, please tell me in the comments section.
