Studying online is proving to be the smarter way to study. The days of carrying around a stack of flashcards are over. Now students can create flashcards, quizzes, study guides and notes online and have access to their study material without the hassle of carrying it around. Most people have a way to access the internet today, whether it's via computer, tablet PC or a smart phone. So why carry the extra baggage (flashcards, books, notebooks, etc.) around.
Students can engage themselves in study groups with other students from their school or even with other students around the world. Studying in groups and sharing study material has always proven to be a successful way to study. Studying online allows you to do so from the comfort of your own home, or wherever you choose to study (a boring dinner date, waiting in line at the movies, work, etc.). Studying online is extremely convenient for people who have very active lifestyles, which seems to be almost everyone these days.
The internet allows you to ask questions and quickly get information that would normally take you a very long time the traditional way. Today information is a click away, and that's what makes studying online much easier. There are websites that enable students to have the full experience of studying online. It's pretty interesting to think about, social networking for students. Such sites enable students to network with their peers the same way other social networking sites do. There's one pretty noticeable difference about their idea of social networking. Their idea of social networking focuses on education and learning. That is something needed today where there are so many things to do on the internet that waste your time.
Education and learning sometimes seems to be put on the back burner. For lots of people learning and going to school is not convenient for them. This can be challenging for parents returning back to school. They have very busy lives and a lot of responsibilities that need their attention. Studying online is a way to ease the stress of learning and make it more convenient. For instance students can create their own flashcards, quizzes, study guides, and notes. They can enter the information in all at once or add information to their flashcards or quizzes on a daily basis. This by itself is a form of studying, and when they are ready to study they can easily access their study material from anywhere.

Plants are shaped by cultivation and men by education. .. We are born weak, we need strength; we are born totally unprovided, we need aid; we are born stupid, we need judgment. Everything we do not have at our birth and which we need when we are grown is given us by education.
(Jean Jacques Rousseau, Emile, On Philosophy of Education)
