    The document compares online learning and classroom learning across several factors. It notes that while online learning lacks physical human interaction, it still provides interaction through virtual means. It also allows 24/7 access to course materials and the ability to immediately apply new concepts to one's job. Assessments for online learning tend to be assignments that allow for group work, while classroom learning relies more on exams. Overall, online learning provides more flexibility in terms of schedule and location.

     Online Learning vs Classroom Learning #1: No Human Interaction: The most obvious difference

    someone thinks of when comparing the two is the perceived lack of human interaction, however
    this isn’t technically true. The correct way to phrase this would be ‘no physical interaction’.
    Classroom Learning involves physical interactions with a teacher and peers, while online learning
    transfers this component to a virtual environment. So while there is human interaction, it happens
    online via virtual lectures, virtual discussions, face-to-face video workshops etc.

     Online Learning vs Classroom Learning #2: 24/7 access to learning materials: With online courses,
    students can always access learning materials such as module contents, assignments, lecture
    materials, podcasts and recorded sessions anytime during the course of their studies. For
    postgraduate courses module tutors are always there to assist with any questions through emails,
    messages and Skype calls. With Classroom Learning, be it for a school or university courses, a
    student has to visit the physical location to speak with tutors face to face, during assigned hours.
    This can be limiting, especially for working professionals.

     Online Learning vs Classroom Learning #3: Practice while you study: For University courses, Online
    Learning students can fit studies around their work schedules, and can immediately practice new
    concepts learned by applying them in their current scope of work. With classroom learning
    university courses, this is not often the case. Since students have to leave their job and social
    commitments to complete a degree programme, they will only be able to practice the new
    knowledge once they have re-joined the workforce. When it comes to schools and younger learners,
    a lot of Online Learning tools and apps help students understand concepts on a deeper level by
    providing problems they can interact and solve with in different ways. For example, logic puzzles or
    math puzzles that aren’t the cut and dry ‘solve for x’ prevalent in classroom learning.

     Online Learning vs Classroom Learning #4: Assessments: The Classroom Learning method of


    assessing a student’s capabilities is usually through quizzes and exams, most often one in a physical
    setting invigilated by an examiner. Covid-19 has made this method of assessment (temporarily)
    redundant. In Online Learning, assessments are undertaken via assignments, which can be either
    individual or group-based, providing an opportunity for students to form study groups that support
    each other and learn from their differing experiences. In rarer cases, online, open-book exams are
    also used as an assessment medium, however the latter is more popular.

     Online Learning vs Classroom Learning #4: Agility: Course materials can be accessed from anywhere
    in the world, regardless of differences in time zones, the location of the student, or their current
    status. From a busy working professional studying online in the late hours of the evening, to a stay
    at home mum brushing up their knowledge before getting back on the job market, online learning
    provides the much needed flexibility to study and finish a degree at each one’s own pace.
