Online Course
Recently,due to the COVID-19,online course has become a heated topic at the moment.Different people hold different attitudes towards online course. Just as a saying goes,every coin has two sides,and this is no exception.
For some,online course has become a trend.They are in favour of it for the reason that students can follow the teachers to keep their learning going and they may be interested in this new way of learning.Meantime,with the videos saved in the computer,students can review what they have learned at any time,which helps students make a reasonable schedule according to their ability and time.What's more,studying at home helps cultivate self-discipline.
However,for others,many students may play games while
studying and waste their precious time.It is possible that students become addicted to phones,which has a severe impact on their study.What's worse,too much screen time does great harm to students'eyes.
From my point of view,we should make good use of online course to help us study and reduce the drawbacks to the minimum by setting limitations and enhancing teacher-student communication.It's an opportunity for us to brave(v.勇敢面对;经受困难)the storm together and see our efforts pay off(奏效;成功)in time.
