This article explores how online learning and traditional classroom education are changing as technology develops. Online learning is becoming more advanced and easier to access, giving students more flexibility, personal learning, and the chance to study with people from around the world. However, classroom learning is still important because it helps students build social skills, work together, and take part in activities that are hard to do online. By examining the main advantages and disadvantages of both online and classroom learning, the article suggests that online learning will not completely replace traditional schools. Instead, a mixed or blended learning system that uses the best parts of both methods is likely to guide the future of education.
