Tell us what you think about the possibility of taking courses online. What are the trade-offs between this approach to education and an experience complete with classrooms and in-person interactions? What are the benefits and drawbacks? Have you ever taken an online course or used an instructional video like those from Vi Hart or Khan Academy? If so, what did you think? Can you see video and online instruction replacing traditional classes? Do you think it is the wave of the future?

I think that taking classes online are not good for people.  It blocks people off from the world.  Even if you have social problem you still should attend school the normal way.  Attending school the normal way causes you to meet new people and experience new things.
People can become isolated from the world and never learn how to verbally communicate with people.  Then people would not be able to get certain jobs because they can't socialize with others.  That is going to cause a decline on people who can talk on adequate level.
Things like that are bad for the people of the society. No one would be able to talk to anyone or be communicative.  That's why online classes are bad.
