Online learning should be seen as a complement and extension of classical forms of learning. Not even the best online course can fully replace the personal contact with a teacher, or the human relationships that develop in a group.
All in all, traditionalclassesshould notbe replaced with online learning.

There comes a time when we hear a certain call When the world must come together as one There are people dying And its time to lend a hand to life The greatest gift of all
We can't go on pretending day by day That someone, will soon make a change We are all a part of Gods great big family And the truth, you know, Love is all we need
[Chorus] We are the world, we are the children We are the ones who make a brighter day So lets start giving There's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives Its true we'll make a better day Just you and me
Send them your heart so they'll know that someone cares And their lives will be stronger and free As God has shown us by turning stones to bread So we all must lend a helping hand
[Chorus]
When you're down and out, there seems no hope at all But if you just believe there's no way we can fall well well well well Let us realize that a change can only come When we stand together as one
Although the want for e-book services in libraries has grown, and so the
number of people with e-readers, some difficulties still keep libraries
from being able to provide the popular technology. Just recently have
most big publishers agreed to sell e-books to libraries for public use.
It has taken many years but publishers of electronic books now realize
that libraries providing an e-book to patrons can be a huge opportunity
for advertising and usually results in patrons becoming customers.
