With traditional learning, the focus is on the educational content and cramming the answers rather than on developing real-life skills that would help us in the future. While in the online mode of education, the focus is on developing skills. In the life of an average university student, the lectures are of about 8 hours but online learning will only take half the time because of its expressive content.
