Topic: Conflicting research reports state both that students think online classes are as good or better than in person courses (Wood, 2021) AND that online courses are worth less than in person courses because online is “not as good” (Newton, 2021). The pandemic created the need for many college courses to go online and the haste in which the in-person courses were presented for students online causes quality and acceptance issues. However, the overall pros and cons of online courses has not changed much over time and this college website (Montgomery College, n.d.) lists 10 pros and 10 cons of online learning: Advantages and Disadvantages of Online Courses In this great debate, tell us what you think! Are online courses as good or better than in person courses? Not as good? Do these pros and cons about cover it? How will you use this pros and cons list and strategies or tips from other sources to make this a great semester? References Montgomery College. (n.d.)
