TOPIC 1: Learning possibilities supported by the internet

1. The Internet gives people the opportunity to educate themselves, and all from the comfort of their own home if they wish. It allows us to be able to learn as much as we want about what we want. For example, if you were interested in a subject or course that your school or college does not cover, you could take it upon yourself to teach yourself through your own online research or by signing up to an online course, either for free or for a set fee. As is the helpful and cooperative nature of the majority of those who use the Internet, help is easy to find. Through the use of online forums or other websites users can post questions and get immediate responses. Another obvious benefit of the Internet is connectivity. This allows students to interact with their teachers or other educational professionals even though they may not be geographically near. All in all the Internet is making the entire education process a lot faster and more open, which is a major benefit.
