    Leanne is one of the students studying through online degree programs. She chose to study online

for many of the same reasons that other students do. She was working full-time, and did not want to

move away from her job and family to continue her education. Leanne liked that she was able to study

whenever and however much she wanted.

    But while the program met her needs at first, Leanne felt there were things she did not get from

studying online. Later, she earned her undergraduate degree from a traditional, face-to-face study

program at Thomas Jefferson University.

     Leanne says physically being in a classroom helps build a strong connection between students and

their professors. In some ways she liked taking control and leading her own studies. But many times,

she also felt lost without that special connection.

    In addition, it may not be just a student's learning that suffers in a distance learning program.

There is some concern about what future employers think about an online degree, too.

     Some employment specialists from Public Agenda, a nonprofit research organization, believe that

students in online programs learn less than those in traditional programs and online programs are

easier to complete.

      Some employers may have limited understanding of what is possible through an online program.

However, until there are widely accepted standards for online programs as there are for traditional

ones, crkical opinions will likely remain.

      Also, there appears to bc a barrier for online programs becoming more widely accepted. If more

well-known, high quality schools start offering such programs, employers will likely consider the two

methods as equal. But the high cost to create high quality online programs suggests this will not be

easy.

  Today, more students are choosing online college programs over traditional programs every year.

But there is still a long way to go before online and traditional programs operate on the same level.
