STRENGHTS AND WEAKNESSES


 STRENGHTS
WEAKNESSES
One of the strengths can be that the learner autonomous by the time of taking the course.
To study on an open distance classes is not for everyone. Requires some skills and style of learning.
To learn in open distance classes is a way of evolution revolution studies. Because is throughout a media that is innovative and technological.
In some context may be considered as a high cost
Source for learning.
Easy storage system throughout intern devices and extern device like :cd rom, dvd, memory stick, external memory
The easy storage leads to the use of a PC and non-everyone has a pc or laptop. Some programs take a lot space on these memory storage devices so it can be very costly also.
The Internet nowadays has an important place on business, education and entertainment.
Low access to the internet , internet failures, server down
Computer Manage Learning is an approach, with the following benefits cost effectively to administer tests and to track their progress and to manage the student learning.
This kind of approaches may not suit everyone because to study under these standards requires special skills. The student must be autonomous and well organized in time and space.
The ability to use media
Many people is unfamiliar with technology sources. Manage of programs. The use of internet to benefit on learning.
Unlimited use resources in time and space. Videos, books, images, dictionaries, researches. Etc.,
Many people don’t know how to benefit from the use of internet.

In my opinion I think that everything must be work out, when is a need and a truly feeling for learning.
The demands on this globalized world lead to the use of technology. So I can see that more people go for these types of courses no matter what. Because in other words the use of computer systems is a strong economic power source. Translate to obtain a better job. Obtain a promotion, education opportunities, is a great source on communication and many more.
So as part of this revolution we must go along with these changes in order to excel in life. By the other hand can be devastating to intend to get back on these important changes. Because every single step is leading to the use of technology. The new changes on communication and a new age on information. I think once the person has the training this can be an excellent tool to rely on our life projects. Because comes along with an uncountable benefits.
One of my main objectives when I began my university computer was to learn how to use the computer programs. Because I was back on the new changes which means non competent in many job positions. Now I can go to ask to a job position and say that I know how to use some programs as well as the internet.

  1. I agree with you because if we do not learn how to use the new technologies, we will be obsolete! If we want to develop ourselves, it is mandatory to innovate. Renew or die!

  2. Hello Marcela,
    I concur with your opinion. Nowadays, distance education takes place basically through computers and each day more and more people try to take advantage of it. However, as you point in the first weakness of students, distance classes are not for everyone; as the courses progress, some students might get discouraged due the effort they have to make to learn how to handle a computer program before starting to move forward in their learning.

  3. Well, among all the strenghts and weaknesses you wrote, I agree in most of them excep in one. The one you said that Distance Education is consider sometimes "expensive". I would way that indeed, people tends to think this, but if they compare what it costs to take a distance class and what it costs to go and take face to face classes, every day... Eventually, distance classes are cheaper.
