College Classes - Why Students Like to Skip Them

Nowadays, more and more college students like skipping their classes. This action has caused a great deal of social concern and criticism. Should college students skip classes whenever they feel like? As for me, I am strongly against the idea of skipping classes.

Since we are students, we have the responsibility to attend classes. However, some students believe that going to classes is optional. Frankly speaking, I don't understand how college students can expect to learn anything if they don't attend classes like they are supposed to.

For such action, I have summed up some of the reasons and causes. First, in comparison to high school students, college students have more freedom relatively. If they have a lot of freedom and are not strict with themselves, they would either oversleep in the morning or surf the Internet or take an active part in other activities to entertain themselves during class time.

Second, some students feel that classes are boring and view their teachers' teaching methods as not suitable for them; this can cause them to dislike going to classes. In addition, some students think and believe that experience is more important than theoretical knowledge when it comes to finding a job in the future, which explains why many students busy themselves in part time jobs when they should be attending classes.

These are the reasons why college students skip classes, but I don't agree with any of them. I believe that by attending our classes, we are helping ourselves learn more things. If you believe that reading the textbooks alone can get you a good grade in your classes, you are wrong. Teachers or professors always teach more than our textbooks and they would always explain everything in details, which is not something that textbooks can do. Besides, attending class is a good way for us to learn how to get along with and work with other classmates. The most important is that if you do not attend your classes, you are wasting a lot of the money that you pay your school every year.

Are Traditional College Classes Better Than Online College Classes?

If you are like most people entering college, you are likely considering taking online college classes. Whether you are a traditional college student who is entering college straight from high school or you are a non-traditional student who has taken a little (or maybe a lot) of time off between high school and college, you want to make sure that you are getting a quality college education. Yet often it is far more convenient to take online college classes than to worry about finding the right course that you need to satisfy your degree requirements around your schedule. It can be a real headache to try to fit in all of the courses you need into a schedule already filled with several other courses that you need to take for the summer as well as a busy personal life that may involve a job and other responsibilities.

This is where the benefits of online college classes come into play. However, many students don't want to forsake the quality of their education for the convenience of taking an course online. So are traditional college classes better than online college classes? The answer is absolutely not. In fact, often times you will have the same professor or instructor teach both the online and traditional courses with the same syllabus, covering all of the same information. Many courses are set up to allow for peer interaction with other online students, and you may even find that you form into online study groups. In this way, you can get the full experience of taking the course, but with the flexibility of taking the course around your schedule.

So if you are debating between taking a traditional course or its online version, there is no need to worry about the quality of education you would be getting if you choose the online course.
