traditional education vs e learning

You're implying e-learning is better, but you're wrong. Traditional education isn't obsolete, it's irreplaceable. Yes, you can watch videos alone, but learning isn't just information transfer. It's friction, debate, the discomfort of being challenged by a teacher who knows you're not paying attention. E-learning lets you quit. A classroom forces you to show up. And let's be honest about who benefits from e-learning: the privileged with broadband and quiet homes. Poor kids need schools for meals, structure, and human connection. E-learning is scalable abandonment dressed up as innovation. You're not democratizing education, you're automating away the human beings who actually save lives through teaching. What's your counterargument?
