e. Provision of a learning method for everyone

Formal education offers little variety regarding e-learning methods. Many teachers and
students may find it difficult to adopt formal education methods, but the variety of online

education methods is endless. In this way, the teacher can find the most suitable teaching
method and the student can find the most suitable learning method on e-learning platforms.

f. Lower costs

When you adopt an online training/e-learning platform, you pay a one-time development cost
and periodic maintenance, hosting, updating, backup costs. When you compare these costs

with the cost of space, transportation, maintenance, administration and many more spent on
formal education, it is obvious that significant savings will be achieved with online education.

the only needs of the teacher and student are the internet and a computer / mobile device for
online education. Today, there is hardly anyone who does not have these devices. Therefore,

online education is cost effective.

g. Time flexibility
One of the advantages of online education is related to teaching time. Concepts such as

absenteeism and attendance, which students do not like, are not a big problem in online

education systems. Inability to attend the training due to work hours, illness, family or special
circumstances is eliminated. The desired amount of training can be taken at the desired time.

h. Increase of performance in students
According to the research of the US Department of Education; the performance of students in

online education is higher than their performance in face-to-face education in some courses.
Online education / e-learning systems, which are becoming popular day by day, offer more

effective education environments for both students and teachers.

i. Environmental friendliness
If you think that online education saves only paper, you are wrong. With online education

methods, the carbon emissions caused by the transportation vehicles used while going to
school are also significantly reduced.

j. Support for disadvantaged students
The problems experienced by students with physical disabilities while going to school are not

experienced in online education. In addition, these systems provide important conveniences

for individuals with communication problems, people who are afraid of speaking in public
