Summarize the main points in the lecture and then explain how they cast doubt on the ideas in the reading passage.
The article states that there are a lot of schools providing online degree programs, but in some cases, they are totally different from on campus courses. However, the professor made several points that refute each of the author’s reasons.
First, the author explains that during the online courses, professor and the students couldn’t see each other face to face. According to the lecture, the professor claims that students can choose the traditional campus courses. If they get online degree, they have an option to communicate with their teacher through email, chat, call conferences so on.
Second, the article asserts that online course assignments are tended to be graded by junior workers while senior faculties give feedbacks on-campus homework. However, the professor explains that both programs must demonstrate same standards for accreditation. The professor provides an example, which students from 20 programs reported that online courses are more difficult than on-campus one. Because online degree requires students to be more self-disciplined and offers them great time management.
Third, according to the reading, top universities are not available for online, but the lecturer opposes this idea by saying “it’s not true”. Using the example of top schools, He indicates that all top universities including Princeton offer online graduate degrees.
In a word, according to the lecturer theory emphasis that students can get same knowledge and courses through the online degree program.
