Online opportunities and facilities were existing even before coeona but people were not very used of them. Some of them didn't rely on those opportunities. The corona period gave people the opportunity to realize the existence of these faciliies. Moreover, it was the time when many people understood that the crypto was a real thing.
So far as distant learning is concerned, I had to face a great level of stress as my kids were getting online classes. Neither the teacher nor the students knew how to navigate in that new environment. Education was nearly giving nothing but just a burden.
Nevertheless, I would say that it opened up opportunities for learning higher courses. And so people can reach where it would be impossible to reach otherwise
Indeed, as you mentioned, it's not merely about their availability. Previously, virtual universities were not popular in Pakistan, but now we see Pakistanis learning from Google courses and Udemy. These online courses have become so popular that having completed some would facilitate my move to Canada (I admire their environment, despite the challenges of the cold weather).
I've been involved in crypto for a while, but I started questioning my own cryptocurrencies, leading me to find answers. They say an idle mind is the devil's workshop, but during those days, we discovered life's true meaning. It was almost as if we were involuntarily placed in a state of meditation.
Yes, I also felt less sharp during the COVID learning days, which is indeed concerning. However, it's not that online education is inherently flawed. For instance, my friend in Saudi Arabia had video call classes, daily tests, and homework. Although teachers could access their room cameras (though they rarely did), he benefited greatly from a well-structured education system.
Absolutely, people can learn from many sources. The digital world offers many advantages too. Thank you for your feedback.
Yup. It opened up new realms of opportunities at our disposal but hidden from us by then.
Certainly, it is not inherently flawed. We just didn't understand how to navigate in that environment. We were lacking on the skills needed for the purpose.
