Personal Perspective Paper

"Back in the day", the classroom lecture and the library were the only methods people had for getting an education. In today's world, there are many tools and processes that can give students another avenue for higher education through the use of the Internet.

The time saved can be used to produce the best possible product within the time limits provided.
