ITUNES 4


The reasons why the universities and colleges are starting to teach this way is because it’s more convenient for both the students and the teachers to have everything online. Teachers are able to put their lectures online whenever they want instead of having to wait until the next class. The students like this because they don’t have to go to class to get the lesson nor do they have to go to class to hand in their homework.  Posting the lessons online shows other students who are thinking about taking the course what the class is like. When the students are interested in the course they might want to go to the school where they saw the course online which is good for colleges and universities because they can make more money. It does not cost anything to go online to see what a course is like however, if that person wants to take the course they will have to pay for it. This is a way for the universities and colleges to advertise to get more students to join and therefore they will make more money.  Online learning will help the students learn in more than one way. They will be able to go online and learn for other people along with the teacher. This also gives the students a visual way of learning for those students who don’t learn well by listening. By teaching in more than one way it helps the students stay focused and stops them from getting bored like they would if they were just sitting in a class listening to the teacher teach.  By having courses online with the iTunesu the colleges and universities are able to help students learn more and on their own time. This can also help the schools by getting people who aren’t in school, interested in the course. This might get that person to take the course at their school. Also, by having courses online it allows more students to join the school without actually going into the building. This allows the school to make even more money without necessarily paying more teachers to teach the course. The schools are no longer limited to how many students they can fit in the building and it allows a teacher to teach more students, therefore it cuts costs for the schools.
