The Army And Online Education
The armed forces are extremely important to every country. In order to survive and prosper, we need brave and courageous individuals that are prepared to fight for their country and preserve our way of life. However, although they appear to be heroes, we often neglect them in terms of their own futures when they do retire from the army in the years to come. Some army training facilities incorporate an education for individuals signing up, but the majority of them do not. This is where online education often comes in handy!
Online education has opened up an equal possibility for everyone to learn what he or she wants and when he or she wants. It has enabled a high percentage of individuals that thought they would never get the same opportunities as everyone else to learn the same subjects and skills that everyone attending university does every day. Education is far more accessible and that actually included individuals in the army. Online opportunities are vast for the military personnel that do want to advance themselves and yet do not have the time because they have an amazingly vital function to serve for this country. They have as much right as anyone else to an education, if not more so, and thus it is about time that they had the opportunity to prove that they are as worthy of a college degree as everyone else!

The Controversy Of Distance Education
It was just really nice to hear that there is a developing alternative method available for people to avail of education even outside the school premises. It was interesting to witness that the world has really been on its track towards globalization and progress. I agree that technological advancement is one of the most evident proofs for almost everyone. I believe that the development of distant education is on its way to being widely accepted by both students and educators because of its inherent and obvious benefits for parties (students and teachers), the government and the business sector. My stand is that distant education, online education, or interactive education, whatever anyone prefers, as an alternative method of knowledge acquisition cannot and should not replace traditional classroom education even if it be an indication of the world’s progress.
Andrew Feenberg, in his article entitled “Reflections on the Distance Learning Controversy” has clearly shown favor for the online education as one of the pioneers of such program. His admiration for the purpose of the program is so obvious when he said that “the virtual classroom was a place of intense intellectual and human interaction” (A. Feenberg). I am personally in favor of pursuing distant education, knowing that such method can help a lot non-traditional students. It maybe possible that “intense intellectual and human interaction”, as Feenberg claimed, can happen in online education. This is so because intelligent and smart students can be found anywhere else in the world, regardless of their nationality and age, as well as teachers. I also agree that such kind of students can be shaped by online education but like traditional classroom learning, the case is relative. I said so because learning depends on how eager and dedicated students are.
