What are they not telling you much about online learning? I mean higher institutions and the likes. By now you should know that you can learn so much online but at your own pace and convenience. Just you sitting in front of your laptop or just holding your phone. Schools want you in class. You have to follow their schedule, yes they like your face so they want to see you at all times. Funny! But they won't tell you same knowledge you can get even better online. This is the sad truth.
During my days at the university, I wasn't opportuned to get a sophisticated and a high speed internet connected phone or even laptop. So I didn't get to know what I could learn online. Many of my mates stayed off class. They appeared once in a while particularly towards test and exams just to study the lecturer pattern and behavioral attitude, I think plus not to miss out on impromptu tests. Most of them passed excellently and not that they even cheated. Many top universities including Ivy League schools offer free online courses through platforms like Coursera and edx, you can get access to world class education in your kitchen without even paying a dime. Probably this challenges the traditional tuition model so schools won't promote it. But know this, you can learn from the best professor in the world with your smartphone.
