    What is the impact of virtual learning on students?

User will get to know about how it has impacted and changed the learning process. Much of information will be available as use of both secondary and primary source is done which will help in understanding the concept in more details.

    literature Review

    According to (Xu and et.al., 2011) virtual learning is a process which is carried out through computers and internet and can be used within and outside the education institution. Use of different software’s is done to facilitate the learning process and made teaching process more effective and interesting for the students. Author added that it has solved the issue of close monitoring on every student as through this activity of every student can be traced which was not earlier possible in the traditional learning styles. He says that now teachers can simply by log- in from anywhere can revise their syllabus, design the patterns and can plan their next lecture which has helped much to those who run short of time and finds it difficult to do all the work on their own. Apart from this not only the teachers but also the students can get the lecture if they were absent on a particular date which further has helped them to remain updated and loss which was faced before due to nonattendance is evaluated.  

    According to Pellas, (2014) the virtual learning model has a significant impact on students' learning because there is critical customer relation between way of learning and students. In the virtual learning model, students are provided digital gadgets to under any concept or study. Due to this learning the level of satisfaction and engagement raised in an effective manner. The traditional model of learning is being avoided by most of the students because in this model, old techniques of learning are used. While in the virtual learning method, new and advanced technologies are used that help to students to learn in a quick manner as well as it is become cause of promoting education among learners. In addition, the another impact of this model on learning of students is that they can do study at any time and from nearly any location. This model offers an effective way to train students, to change the traditional approach of studying and to attract more number of students around the globe.

    Though, along with the above mentioned positive impact of virtual learning on students, it has some negative impact too. Such as under this, due to absence of face to face meeting, various issues raise like lack of understanding of students. As well as in this model, about 78% of students fail to complete their course. The key reason of this is the lack of student engagement and their ineffectiveness to find needed activities. Basically, this model can become successful only if students engage actively. In some cases, students are getting benefit of this learning model because they involve completely in all the activities. In the economical perspective, this model is less costly and those students who have shortage of funds can get learning in less time. So overall, the virtual learning model has a positive impact on students if they involve actively.
