E-Learning Day Reflection

I think that E-Learning Day is very unique and special. It is the first time I did all my homework online and it was a new experience for me. I have never thought of doing my home online and the good thing is that we go online and do the home online. At home, we can start doing the homework online anytime we want and we can take a rest whenever we want. We can take a break or a nap if we want too. Unlike in school, even if we are hungry, we have to wait till the break time or after school before we can go and take a bite.

Not only that, we can listen to music and do our homework at the same time which is not allowed in school. While doing our homework, we can stop half-way for a rest and do other things we like. But in school, we are given a time limit for the work that is given to us. The E-Learning Day is also on a Friday and if students have no time to do the assignments given on that day, they can also do it on the weekend. Like for me, I was sick on the Thursday and Friday and I do not wish to go online as I wish to rest more and goin online strains my eyes. I felt better on the Sunday and started doing the assignments given.

However, doing all our homework online have some disadvantages too. For example, we cannot play and talk with our friends and teachers face to face. Not only that, if we have problems, we cannot ask our teachers and have to wait till the next school day. Some students would choose to play computer games or go out during the E-Learning Day and not do the assignments given. The students can also use this E-Learning Day as an excuse to cheat their parents and play computer games.

Overall, I still think that going to the school to study is better than doing assignments online. But the school should have more of such E-Learning Day as it can be a break for us, the students and it is interesting.
