Why Take Live Online Classes?

• They are safer: stay at home in a safe environment and take an online class.
• Cutting travel costs : save on high gas prices and save on the wear and tear on your vehicle.
• Comfort: take a class in your pajamas if you want, no one will see what you are wearing.
• Child or Adult Care: if you are a parent with small children, you need not worry about finding and paying a sitter. If you are a caregiver with a loved one, you need not worry about finding and hiring a sitter.
• Convenience: if you are unable to get out due to illness, or injury, the classes come directly to your home.
• Learn new skills: taking an online webinar class will teach you new skills in technology. Students become more technologically savvy. You can enroll for a Web-based course with little previous online experience, based on prerequisites for a given course.
• Less intimidating: participating online is much less intimidating than "in the classroom." Anonymity provides students a level playing field undisturbed by bias caused by seating arrangement, gender, race and age. Students can also think longer about what they want to say and add their comments when ready. In a traditional class room, the conversation could have gone way past the point where the student wants to comment.
• Access - online courses enable students to take a course who live too far away to attend face to face courses.
