Online Learning a Boost for Academic Performance
With the lives of international students shifting drastically and the need to get used to new ways of living and learning, 2020 has definitely been an extraordinary year. International students have generally remained optimistic about the outlook for the academic year, from shifts in travel plans to online learning, and are committed to keeping their plans and personal growth on track. In the midst of the challenges presented by the global coronavirus pandemic, new opportunities have also arisen, especially in the virtual sphere, with online courses, qualifications and degrees.
With many students unable to undergo on-campus training, pursue internships or courses to improve their academic skills and abilities because of travel constraints, as well as university closures, the possibility of online learning and completing a course that you can do at home has gained appeal. Over 60 per cent of international students have reported an interest in learning online and/or beginning online and transferring to face-to - face instruction where possible in recent research conducted by QS. Indeed, in 2020, 73% of international students said they were open to beginning their studies online.
Both universities and online learning platforms have reacted with strong interest and a need for the provision of such services for students. A number of vast open online courses, certificates, degrees and subject specializations are offered by such platforms. On such platforms, course instructors are all trained professionally and come from renowned institutions. With more than one million students signed up for such channels, these pages have also been bookmarked by students seeking to follow their academic goals through several years of experience.
With the ability to learn skills such as data analysis, software creation and social media marketing all given by experts in the fields, the driven projects on offer will be open to you. During what is a difficult time, online courses have stated their commitment to assisting and facilitating students. By providing free access, the platform seeks to provide students with an opportunity to continue growing and learning in spite of challenging circumstances.
