Virtual Learning: What Is It?

The internet has and will continue to transform the learning experience. Virtual learning is when a student receives an education through an electronic device rather than a traditional classroom. Students and educators interact through an online platform that offers the learning features of a physical classroom without the actual physical classroom. 

Students can interact with other students through the virtual setting, unless it is a one-on-one course, and can ask questions and address anything in real-time. Virtual classrooms can accommodate many more students than a traditional classroom due to limited capacity. Virtual schooling allows for customized learning, providing a safe school setting where students can thrive academically and invest in their health, personal preferences, and family life.
