Distance education allows students who cannot attend traditional in-person classes to receive instruction, often on an individual basis, without being physically present in a classroom. It has advantages like increasing access to education through flexible scheduling, but also disadvantages such as domestic distractions, unreliable technology, costs, lack of contact with teachers and support, and inexperienced students and teachers. Students in distance education are evaluated through assignments, online exams, and projects, which are criteria like reliable submissions, timely completion, and exam results.
