being online is no longer something strange in our life. to some degree, it has become part of our daily life. we can do a lot of things online, such as searching for information and communicating with friends far and near. but recently another helpful online activity has become very "in". that is online education.

　　why could online education be so popular within such a short period of time? among other reasons, the quick development of the internet should be an essential one, which makes all our dreams of attending class in the distance possible. another underlying reason is the quick development of both society and technology. today,modern science and technology is developing with lightening speed. to catch up with this development we all feel an urgent and strong desire to study. however, due to the great pace of modern society, many people are too busy to study full time at school. online education just comes to their aid.

　　personally, i appreciate this new form of education. it's indeed a helpful complement to the traditional educational means. it can provide different learners with more flexible and versatile ways of learning. most of all,with online education, we can sick to our jobs and at the same time study and absorb the latest knowledge.
