  • Abstract
    This paper explores distance learning from students´ perspective. We are faced with ads for online learning every day, and it is questionable whether the quality of knowledge gained by this method is as good as that gained by traditional education. Distance learning is an efficient education method for those who want to obtain a degree while simultaneously working, raising a child, etc. Along with many advantages, distance learning also has its disadvantages, such as not enough student progress control and losing motivation. Well designed courses have a facilitator and forums for alleviating these disadvantages. Conclusions are given based on our study that can also be used as advice for students who decide to use this educational model.
