In my opinion the thing that should be improved is propably paying more attention to the way that the lessons are conducted. To me, teachers should try to encourage us more to learning for example by asking us to answer their questions on lessons.

For sure teaching in real life is much more profitable for Our future and education. Of course, there are a few things I like about remote learning, for example, I can wake up just before my lesson and I don’t have to wear my makeup all day it’s so good for my skin and my mental health. Lessons are shortened so I don’t have to spend all day at the computer. I don’t have to learn as much as I must when we go to school so I have so much time to myself. I can read, dance or watch Netflix. I think that I’m prepared to come back to school and start learning normally and meet my all school friends.

has put us in a situation where we have to use different technologies to learn, work or just have contact with other people. I think that our school prepared well for online education. We have constant contact with most teachers, lessons' contents are well adapted to online learning. The biggest disadvantage for me is fact that we have to spend so much time sitting in front of computers. In “normal” time during school breaks, we can walk down the hall, go outside or buy something in our school shop. When we are closed in “four walls” of our home is some kind of annoying and overwhelming. The thing I would change the most is that some less important lessons (like RE) could be conducted not as lessons on the platform, but as provided text to be written. It will probably reduce the amount of time spent in front of our electronic devices.

But I know that pandemic time is very special and difficult for everyone, so I’m satisfied with how distance learning work now. But if it will be possible, I would change some things about it.
I think that there are many arguments in favor of learning online. To begin with, some students live far from school, and they do not have to waste a time on way to school. Moreover, I can study wherever I want to, somewhere, where I feel comfortable and focused to absorb knowledge
On the other hand, regular attendance in classes helps us interact with friends. Secondly, looking intensively at the screen for a long time, cause eyes' strain and headache, which is unhealthy to young brain, as a result we are not as concentrated as we could be, so it makes online lesson less effective than traditional lesson A lot of students also have computer problems independent of them.
In conclusion, I think that online learning is a good idea, but for a long time, it could cause more damages than profits. I don’ t know what I would improve, because lessons are already shorter than lessons in school, so I think that we can’ t do more.

I think that now everyone talks about online education. You know it’s coronavirus and everyone just cares about it. In my opinion this time is not good for us; students and teachers. In this essay I want to say what I think about it.
When the coronavirus closed down schools and required distance learning for the rest of the school year, things look like complicated. Students just don’t have any motivation to learn. It’s not our fault. We just get used to be in school and write exams and see with our friends.
I don’t like school. I like to learn about something but in school I feel pressure and I don’t like this feeling. When I started study at home I note how it’s important. That’s sound weird but when I’m in school I feel this pressure and I know that I must do something. I think that for me it’s an utmost problem. Probably I should get any motivation but I don’t know how.
People probably has problem with internet or connection but fortunately it’s not me. I think that we can’t do anything about this because it’s not our fault. We just have a bad internet or connection because the whole country use these.
Likely students have a problem with backache or sight. It’s so easy to explain that. Students just sit a lot of the hour opposite a computer. I think that my sight probably has sunk too and I have to go an oculist and research it too.
I think that online education have weakness and goodness. Everyone just wants to back to school and see with friends and learn something of course. We just must wait that period out.
The other thing is fact that we are getting really lazy. We want to wake up late, lie in the bed whole entire day, watch netflix and eat crisps. We don’t want even to do homework.
The thing I like about this e-learning is that we have more time for us, because of shorter time of lessons. In this time we can do a lot of stuff like make a dinner or something. Sometimes the break can take even 45 minutes.
Other thing that I like is school material, which is made like in pill. We talk only about most important things and we don’t waste space in our brains for things that never be useful for us.
The thing that is my favorite is comfort of lessons. I love to lie in bed in just shorts and t shirt during lessons. It’s the most comfortable way of studying.
The thing that I will improve is to figure something with quality of lessons. I hate when my connection is pour and it’s not problem from my site, but from Internet Service Provider.
I just want to end this pandemic and get back to school like it was almost a year ago.

In this teaching I like that I don't have to wake up very early like when we were going to school. Now I wake up about 7:15am and I don't have to hurry up, when I had to go to school I woke up at 6:30am so now I am more rested than a month ago.
It is bad that I have to sit in front of my laptop for 6-7 hours a day. It is kind of boring and it's bad for our eyes, because we have to look at this screen for a long time.
Second bad thing is that I don't see my friends as often as at school. I can't see some of them, because of the distance. In the school I was really happy that I was able to talk to them not online but in real.
The other good thing in this type of learning is for me that we dont have to carry a lot of books. I live far from my school so I was very exhausted when I came to my house after 40 minutes walk.
In conclusion despite all the good things I want to go back to normal learning. I want to see my friends and just go outside.

The main thing that I dislike is the separation from my colleagues,I think that this will make a lot of damage to the class and school community in the long run.Because of this we also miss out on the best aspects of school life,which is clearly unpleasant to say the least.What I also dislike is the fatigue from sitting by the computer for extended periods of time.
The thing that I like is the flexibilty and convenience that working from home gives you.Because of the fact that you don't must to go school as a physical place ,it's nice to just wake up,turn on your computer and to sit comfortably in your own chair.
I main thing that I would improve is the internet connection for some people
Szymon Szewczyk
The only thing I would improve is determine lesson hours because now lessons should last 30 minutes and span of them is like they have 45 minutes. We never know will teacher start lesson 15 minutes later or just finish 15 minutes earlier (or they don’t care about time and lesson last 45 minutes).

Remote teaching is easier than normally going to school, because there are not testsor exams and you can focus more on extended subjects that you like and interest you.
The worst is that the teacher is often can't explain everything well to you on the webcam, so you definitely learn more when you go to school. I guess that's really important in study when you see every teacher's geasture and exactly see what teachers writes on the blackboard.
When we studing at home, we often skip minor lessons and don't learn them at all. I can admit that on online learning I a little skipped a history or geography, subjects that I do not expand and they are not interesting me, so I know that I wouldn't like to write mature of these items.
Remate teaching is cool and nice, but not for a long time so I hope thet we will go back to School in January.

But online education has disadvantages of course. First of all, some of the lessons are not typically online, we are just getting the notes and must to learn by ourselves without teacher explanation, which is not effective in my opinion. Also, some of the subjects are more difficult because the lessons are shorter and we need to shorten some topics or analyze them by ourselves not at the lesson. This means that in some cases we have more homework than before online school. A really important disadvantage is that we cant see our friends as much as before, because when we have lessons hours we must stay alone in a home, so we can see our friends only after lessons, not like before when we could see them all day at school. The last disadvantage is a problem with communication during online classes. There are so many technical problems over which we do not influence, like a bad internet connection or just program issues. Because of this we as students often have a problem with understanding teachers.
In conclusion, I think online education has some advantages but unfortunately there are more cons than pros to this situation.

For me one of the best positives of online education is that you can get more sleep. On a typical weekday when my lessons start at 8.00 o’clock I have to get up at about 6.30. Getting to school takes me 15 minutes, so the time for preparing for school is about 1 hour and 15 minutes! It’s usually not enough, so I have to do my morning routine in a hurry. The second advantage of online education is that I don’t have to do my make up so early and sometimes I don’t have to do it at all, as most often the webcam during lessons is switched off. It’s very important for me because doing make-up is a very time consuming activity and besides now my skin can rest and get better.
I don’t see any other positive sides of online education. In fact I am not a fan of it. Sitting in front of the computer is not good for our eyes and our body. Moreover, I really miss talking with friends during school breaks, but I also lack the face to face contact with teachers as it allows students to communicate with them freely. It goes without saying that we acquire more knowledge at school. Now online lessons are shorter and for many reasons less effective. Sometimes there are technical problems with the internet and you can’t do anything about it. It’s harder for me to focus on the lesson for half an hour at home. There are so many things that distract me, like a loud vacuum cleaner, a naughty younger brother who is having his online lessons at the same time as I am having mine, and of course pets. For instance my dog wants to play or go for a walk and doesn’t understand that it’s not a good idea cause I have to pay attention to the lesson and make notes. It’s very irritating that there are long breaks between lessons and in the meantime I have to wait for the next lesson for next half an hour and so I have to sit in front of the computer till 3.00 p.m. every day. Thus in my opinion the timetable should be better organised with shorter breaks between the lessons. In this way we could finish lessons earlier.
Generally I hope that the current extraordinary situation won’t last for a long time and we’ll soon get back to our normal life and of course to stationary education.

The disadvantages of this activity are the form of classes, not everyone has access to the Internet (fast), which makes it impossible for some to take an active part in the lessons.Lessons conducted in a given way are also not very effective, it is difficult to extract information from such lessons.
The "advantage" for people less involved is that they can often do what they want in lessons because the teacher has no control over them.
Many teachers also do not understand the technical matters related to remote teaching, which makes the lessons ineffective.
Maciek Kubiak
There is a lot of negative sides of this state of affairs, the most burdensome for me is that I can't focus on studying, cause at home there is lots of thing that distract me, for example my dog barks, my mum wants me to do many things like house cleaning or my brother comes to my room to annoy me. There are technical problems as well during my classes (most often lags) and sometimes it can be frustrating. Also when I don't go to school I don't see my classmates and other people so I feel kinda lonely.
But there are some perks of online school. I can finally get enough sleep, because I don't have to wake up at 6;30 everyday, I can wake up 5 mins before lesson. I have more free time that I can spend on my hobbies or resting.
In conclusion, I think that there are more negatives that positives and I would like to go back to school as soon as possible.

First thing I don't like, lessons are hard to undersand because there are sometimes problems with serwers, internet conection and others.
Second thing is that by online education I fall asleep late about 2-3am and that's reason why I always sleepy, because lessons start at 8am I and always want to be on them.
After all day of online lessons I feel very exhausted because all of the time I'm looking on the screen. This causes sore eyes and it causes refusal to do anything I other part of day
But there are some things I really like in this system. One of them is possibility to work in our bed or sit on our soft chairs. It makes me feel more relaxed but also I can focus on the lesson.
All in all, I want to back to school because i feel mach better there with education
