In recent years, distant education has generally been brought into the public focus. A large number of universities have offered open courses on the internet. However, just as the saying goes, “so many people, so many minds.” People from different backgrounds take divergent views concerning this case.

They come up with the attitude that distant education has provided a wider way for students to learn various cultures around all over the world. It is a more convenient way for students to broaden their horizon.
