Hi ! I had my first try, please feel free to change, give your opinion and so on...

The internet has created the ability to offer great educational opportunities,
and for this reason it is becoming increasingly popular among students, teachers and professors around the world.
But there are many issues involved on on-line education which needs to be taken into account.
On-line education is positively beneficial to all age groups searching for a way to engage on a formal kind of qualification and also promises to attend to a bigger public rather than a traditional one, for instance a disabled person or a housewife could easily study from home at their own pace instead of following a fixed timetable.

But many critics argued that many important benefits are lost when dealing with virtual education once a wide range of extracurricular activities and social services cannot be reproduced in electronic form.
“From a normative point of view, these authors and others argue that important social benefits of the university are lost in distance education, and do not consider these losses to be acceptable.”
"Ethical issues for the virtual university"
