There is drawback about distance online education. It gives me the ability to drop off the grid. I have not discussed anything with any one over the past 5 weeks except in the online collaboration. I spent some time on the forums in the first 2 weeks but then I just didn't spend the time.
I think that as a student I have the habit of that procrastination when I'm not physically involved with the activity, or socially and when I'm in front of the computer It does sometimes feel like I'm talking to myself sitting down and not moving around.
I definitely think there is a bias in modern western education towards visual learners, although it is changing, and I have always struggled with it myself. But that does give me hope that if I can find away then I can share this with my students to let them know that they really aren't alone.
