USMA University and University of Panama
Last year my cousin Nathaly asked me for the favor of helping her choose a university to
start her higher education. She had two universities in mind which seemed very interesting
to her, she wanted an university with good location and structures but she did not decide
definitively: USMA University and University of Panama. Usma University is private and
University of Panama is public, I couldnt make up my mind by myself. It was only after I
analyzed the similarities and differences between the two universities that I finally came to
my decision to begin classes at USMA University. There are several similarities and
differences between Usma University and University of Panama
It seems that USMA university and University of Panama have some important points in
common: First of all both universities have a good location near restaurants, super
markets, Green áreas and other universities as well. Talking about location University of
Panama is very centric for students from the city and USMA University is more available
for students from certain áreas.Both universities are the best study houses where the best
professionals graduate.
The transportation system for both universities is good and save, in this case she can use
the metro bus, or the metro to arrive on time to classes. The metro bus is a good system of
transportation but the metro system is faster and saver.I suggested her to use the metro
system by the time she is late to arrive quickly.

Traditional Classes and Online Classes
This New Year 2020 has been totally different from all, since it has distanced us
from our loved ones and from our daily routine, due to the presence of a virus in
the environment: The Corona virus. This virus has changed our lives since the first
case in March 2020. We have changed our hygiene habits which can help us to
avoid death. Talking about our daily routine, this pandemic has forced us to leave
our workplaces, recreation or leisure areas, gyms and even universities. In the
case of universities, we have had to use the technology resource to meet this
responsibility, turning our homes into classrooms and leading us to compare
traditional classes with online classes. Traditional Classes were presented in a
classroom and online classes are presented from home. I couldnt make up my mind
by myself. It was only after I analyzed the similarities and differences between the
two types of classes that I finally came to my decision that for this time it was better
Online Classes in order to save some money,undertake and mainly to be safe and
avoid the virus. There are several similarities and differences between Traditional
Classes and Online Classes.
Analyzing it well, both types of classes have some points in common: First of all,
both classes have the same schedule which we must try to attend on time. When
we attended the traditional classes we always tried to be on time, because now
with the online classes they must also be attended with the same punctuality since
there are virtual platforms that are managed with periods of time, depending on
how long the class lasts and with availability to a specific number of participants.The
speeches or oral presentations in both classes are presented in the same way,
developing a topic that the professor requests in live all gathered in a meeting room
on some virtual platform, the same as if we were in a classroom using our creativity
and some support resources such as banners, powerpoint presentations or videos,
which reinforce and illustrate our presentation in order to obtain a better grade.
Speeches in live are the best way which make us feel the contact with others in a
virtual way. Professors prefer this method instead of others because it helps them to
get grades quickly.
It was when I looked at the differences between the two classes, that I considered
one of them. In terms of location,saving money and security, online classes are
more comfortable from home because I dont have to spend money in transportation,
going to the university and comming back home everyday, neither food nor copies,
it is definitely much better than traditional classes where we had to spend money in
transportation, expensive food and making a lot of copies per subject.I also prefer
online classes instead of Traditional ones because if you need to take a rest between
each subject,you just do it and when you finish the schedule, you can go bet quickly,
whereas if we were in traditional classes, we had to loose time taking the
transportation, between the traffic jam, cold, fatigue and the unsafe Street.On the
other hand, I can say that homeworks are better in online classes than in traditional
so, they are friendlier with the environment because you dont have to waste paper
making copies to study or to do homeworks that at the end, it just go directly to the
trash, you just have to prepare your homework, send it through the platforms in this
case Google Classroom, and after that you can get your grade through the same
platform.Homeworks in online clases are more practical because, it is more difficult
in traditional classes, following too much steps to deliver it.
In conclusion after taking everything in to consideration I think both types of classes
have its own advantages and disadvantages.Since spending money in
transportation, take a rest between each subject, save money and be safe, are all
very important to me. I will probably be happier at home for this time.Online classes
are cheaper, while Traditional classes are more expensive, also online classes are
safer and traditional classes are more unsecure.Online classes force you to
develope more skills and knowledge which help you to improve your
education.Although online classes are safer, traditional classes helped you in the
develop of your social life for the frequent contact with people.
