The unexpected benefits of virtual education

  • Collaborating online might prepare students with the skills needed for modern careers.
  • A growing category of jobs will require employees to work in geographically dispersed, virtual teams.
  • Many students may have enough maturity, focus and self-discipline to learn digitally.
Let's just say it: there is nothing ideal about students and teachers dealing unexpectedly with remote learning, as millions have been doing during the COVID-19 pandemic.

That said, there may be a silver lining to virtual classrooms and distance learning, which many universities and schools this academic year are defaulting to, in various degrees, due to the coronavirus. As students and teachers may have to compensate for logistic challenges, collaborating online might prepare high school students with the kind of organizational acumen, emotional intelligence and self-discipline needed for modern careers, particularly those that allow for the growing trend of working in remote, distributed teams.
