Network education, also known as modern distance education, is a brand-new educational way for school-running subjects to teach widely dispersed students by using the Internet as a tool. It has the characteristics of time and space, and it has become a supplement to the existing education system with its convenience and simplicity. Rural areas, especially the backward areas in the central and western regions, have a huge gap with developed areas in terms of teaching conditions, educational resources, teachers' level and teaching quality. Realizing the sharing of high-quality educational resources through modern distance education is an effective way to narrow the educational gap between the east and the west, promote the balanced development of basic education and realize the goal of "two basics". Through the distance education network, teachers have updated their educational concepts, borrowed teaching methods, broadened their horizons and improved their literacy.
Someone once predicted: "In the next three years, the impact of online education on the development of social life will be as great as that of e-commerce on the business community." Education changes people's destiny, just as RTVU has provided valuable educational opportunities for tens of millions of people in the history of distance education for more than 20 years, the educational revolution and survival change triggered by the network are unstoppable. But there is no doubt that the win-win of social benefits and economic benefits should be the ultimate pursuit of online education providers. Does this mean that the business community of the Internet is full of confidence in economic benefits other than social benefits? China occupies the largest education market in the world, and the field of education is one of the highest internet functions in China. China has a fine tradition of attaching the most importance to education in the world!
The following set of data is enough to support your confidence in aiming at "distance education in primary and secondary schools". According to the urban consumption survey of 1999, 64% of household savings is spent on children's education, and 10% of the 600 billion savings is 60 billion yuan. According to expert analysis, there are more than 400 million primary school students in China, and the number of urban primary school students exceeds 1 100 million. There are more than 200 million high school students and school-age high school students. If 80% study in the form of educational consumption. If calculated by 600 yuan per person per year, the potential benefit will reach more than 36 billion yuan per year.
In short, the forms of expression of distance education will be increasingly diversified, and a large number of new technologies such as multimedia technology will be introduced into courseware, which is no longer the accumulation of pure text data, so that students can not only acquire knowledge from written materials, but also directly see images and hear teachers' voices, so that learning is no longer boring. We have every reason to believe that with the continuous improvement and development of online distance education itself, online education will definitely become the mainstream of modern education in the near future. It can be said that the prospect of the whole education market is the prospect of online education, and it is the strong education market that gives online education a strong vitality.
