When should you ask people for advice or their opinions? You can ask whenever you might need it or want it. For example in sports, work, and school. you can ask anyone if they ever need advice. With something or someone, and you can help them by just listening or talking to them about it. And mainly try and understand what they're saying or what they mean about it. It can also make them feel more confident and better than they did before.

Writing and essay in school can be very stressful and difficult. But you can help someone in school by giving them advice on a essay that they're stressed about or maybe just need some help. Another is taking a test, taking a test is very nerve racking and scary but all you might need to do is just relax take a deep breath and talk to someone and just stay positive. Games in school are fun but someone may need help with a question to get the answer right. If anyone might need help maybe just go over it with them and re-read it so that maybe they can understand and get it quicker, and get the answer right

A good topic is getting promoted or something very special at work that could boost your confidence into wanting to keep improving or doing better. Getting a big part at work is also very exciting and you might want to talk to someone about that just if you need a confidence talk on what might be going on in the future at work or who might be there to help guide you through everything that's going on.

Overall it is very important and very good to ask people for advice or opinions so that they have an idea about whats happening and it overall just makes them not as stressed and nervous. So whenever you think you might need help or advice with anything dont be shy or nervous to ask everyone needs advice or an opinion at some point in time in their lives. So just ask in the future and dont be scared to ask.

Listening to another person's opinions can open your mind to the different ways of doing something. It can also help some people to grow as a person and be able to take their own advice. In order to get the most well rounded advice a person must ask a variety of different people. Often times someone will only ask one person for advice, making their point of view limited. They are only getting one opinion, and aren't able to see how other people interpret what they want to know.

Unfortunately some people don't want to help and only want to focus on themselves. So they give a person poor advice in hopes that the person will stop asking. Then there are some people who are ignorant to the topic. They don't know enough about the topic to give someone proper advice. Usually these types of people don't have malevolent intentions, they just don't know the right things to say. Asking many people helps to separate the good advice from the bad advice people give. It also can help to find the people in someone's life that care about their well being. Which, in the future, will help them make better decisions on later things, because they will know who gives the best advice.

If many people say to not do something then the person knows that majority of people agree it will only do them harm. It is the same for the things a person should do. If many people have the same advice then they know that it's the right thing to do. Indecisiveness is prevalent in many people. Having several voices present should enforce the person to make a decision. Someone can also put together all of the advice they get and find the common denominator of the advice. Making the person self assured about following the advice people gave, because so many of their peers thought the same way. You can tweak all of the advice to create a better idea or a stronger piece of advice. Usually your own advice is best for yourself, so adding other people's advice to your own can help you make a greater choice.

This would majorly help in making sure that you have what was diagnosed. With multiple people's opinions there would be no doubt that the diagnosis was wrong or right. In the medical field doctors actually recommend you get multiple people's opinion just to be sure. They do this because they know that medical bills can be very expensive and they might be wrong.

But if they ask multiple people on how to fix the problem then they could also know many other ways on how to fix it. This could help if the solution that one person gave didn't work or was hard to do. If you have multiple ways to fix your problem then at least one of them is bound to work. Some people might need to have multiple solutions if there was a medical problem as well. They could have some allergies and need an alternative medicine. If they went to multiple doctors to find the right medicine then they could have multiple options on how to treat their medical difficulties. Getting multiple opinions is good in this instinct because it means that you have many options on how to solve a problem that that you might have.

After a long and tiring day at school, students often look forward to returning home to retire in a stress-free environment. People's homes remind them that their strenuous day of work has come to an end and that they can now comfortably enjoy their home alongside the company of their family and friends. Students have come to have a negative perception of school as it exhausts their energy and causes them stress. But what happens when they choose to attend their institution from the comfort of their home? Does their home, a prior safe heaven from school, gain a more stressful connotation? School and home are two very important, but separate, institutions that students should not make the mistake of combining.

Students are often young and their brains have the power to rapidly grasp and process information. However, this ability can be negatively affected especially when the student is in an environment that they are well acquainted with. A well known area where students have limited interactions can dull their curiosity and aspirations for learning, causing boredom. This boredom is able to take over a young student's malleable mind and replace curiosity with distraction. In a world where technology is ubiquitous and can bring the world to one's fingertips, students would much rather research the latest scores of a basketball game or catch up on celebrity gossip, than they would learn about the Pythagorean theorem. At home, a student's mind is able to roam around freely, especially without an instructor prohibiting such distractions. Making it less likely that students are being attentive to the subject being taught on an online forum that limits their participation in the class. Therefore, students will not benefit from attending online classes at home as they will get easily distracted by the comforts in their home.

Many students will agree that a commonly enjoyed perk of going to school is to meet and mingle with friends. However, when students study on an online forum at home, they do not get this opportunity to engage in conversations with peers as there are lesser chances to forge a personal bond with the students in the class. If learning online removes some of the greatest opportunities a student has to establish bonds and friendships, is it really worth it? Students need to know the faces and personalities of the people in their classes to gain a confident observation of each of their classmates' beliefs. Lighthearted conversations with one's peers are a key to developing relationships, and without the assistance of such relationships, students are likely to lack motivation in their goals and studies. Additionally, students will lack motivation in their coursework if they have less need to participate during lectures. An online study forum greatly hinders a student's ability to communicate with peers and take part in group discussions. These discussions are essential for a student's success in core classes as they captivate the student and make them play an active role in the class. Being an active learner provides students with the necessary skills to communicate with the professor and their peers, as well as to actively observe the essential components that are being discussed in the classroom's environment. The lack of opportunity to discuss topics with another student can create an uninteresting perception of that class and make students less inclined to partake in class activities and lectures. Therefore, students will not benefit from attending classes at home as they will be less motivated to partake in the class when their abilities to create relationships and be an active learner are hindered.

In conclusion, students will not benefit from attending online classes at home as they will get easily distracted and be less motivated to learn. If students are to properly balance their home life and their studies, a more reasonable approach that doesn't compromise their relaxation or student life needs to be found. Also, students who attempt to take an online class at home are more likely to be distracted by the comforts that are at their reach. The inability to forge relationships and connect with peers is another drawback of taking an online class at home. Likewise, the lack of opportunities to partake in in-class discussions creates barriers for students to succeed as active learners. Nobel Peace Prize winner and educational activist Malala Yousafzai once said,"a paper and pen can change the world." Yousafzai overcame many hindrances before she could provide education to the girls in her village, so why do we undermine its importance? Education is a powerful tool that we must use to guide the future, it is not something that we can compromise on for comfort.

Students can utilize the teachers in the way that school was originally intended without having to wait on a classmate to finish asking a teacher a question or wait till the teacher is finished helping the other students. Since students can learn from their own homes they can eat whenever they would like to and never have to really leave the classroom or stop for a lunch break.

This way students don't have any stress over getting class on time or missing any classes. Also students it is more relaxing because it is just yourself and the computer. So this way you don't have to worry about other kids or anything that would distract you. In a regular classroom at school there is some kids that distract the entire class and you just feel so hopeless because you are trying to learn but you are too distracted by the other kids. This way you can focus more and learn better.

This will benefit the students because it will minimize the days that you can't attend school. Also if you had a emergancy and have to go somethere far away you can still attend school by online. Also if you broke a bone on your leg or something and you can't walk you might miss a lot of classwork and lessons that are important to you. For this online classes are easy for you.

Imagine a world where instead of going to school, you could stay at home everyday and not face the burden of waking up early to make it to your first period class on time. Sounds like a fantasy, right? This could become a reality if you choose to participate in distance learning and take your classes from home by way of online or video conferencing. However, the question is whether or not this system would be efficient in educating students, and if students benefit from being able to attend classes from home.

Although distance learning may seem like a better alternative to many students, it's clearly ineffective in educating them properly.
