I used to say 'people can learn anything online but they might be too lazy' which is partially true. Then, when covid hit, I realised my brain did not have the capacity to learn for too long when watching a screen; I had just been lucky with having blended modes that aaccomodated well.
I think that it's more of a type of content issue rather than the method of learning.
Think online university lecture vs a random dude doing crazy experiments on YouTube
Sure, the lecture covers more content and does it in a more comprehensive way, but you will probably still learn some stuff from the crazy YouTube dude
Yeah, partially. There is amazing content out there (Jenny explaining relational algebra in YouTube shout out!).
But I also discovered that my brain has a limit for how much information I can process in that way. So blended works better for me... But I will never fault anyone for not being able to make online education work for them.
