The internet has bridged the gap of 'lack of education' to become successful.

Information is power and before now you need to go through school to be able to aquire knowledge to work and become successful. Before now there were secrets to success that were exclusive to a few privileged elites but now you can get almost every information you need on the internet. The internet presents equal opportunities to everybody to search and learn what people go to school to learn and get information without necessarily consulting any professionals. School is no longer the reason why you cannot succeed in life.

A lot of people now earn money through the internet with their skills, they don't need to have a degree or come from influential families. A lot of people from poor backgrounds are rich today because of social media, the space doesn't know your background, what you need to succeed is your skills to give services that a perticular people wants and you get paid. With the internet it is no longer necessary that you must have a certificate to become successful, it encourages giving services directly and getting paid.

Getting a good education is no doubt important to become successful in life but if you are not privileged to get educated through school you can educate yourself through the internet. A lot of people are making money through social media contents, selling their brands through social media, working from their homes and earning money. The internet has made a lot of people successful that ordinarily would have been poor because they were not educated.

Yes, your opinion is really realistic. I am able to develop various skills in online trading using the internet which was beyond my imagination. Once upon a time people were confined to certain limits, now there are thousands of articles and ideas, if someone has the passion that I will learn something good, it is definitely possible. The internet has expanded our scope of learning and knowledge.

School is like getting a training, and you can be schooled on the internet, to become a social media influencer there are some online classes that can help you learn it, that is still like getting schooled on it.
The internet has not bridged the gap of lack of education to become successful but schooling has become available in many ways like the internet to make one successful.

They still ought to learn those ways on the internet and that is schooling, you skill will get advanced when you keep learning.

The Internet is a treasure trove of information. A person can get any kind of information from the Internet if he wants. After the advent of AI in the current digital world, the matter has become much easier. In my studies, I currently use AI as an alternative to tuition teachers for learning sometimes. It helps me understand the textbooks. And if you talk about earning, then I will say that those who have learned the proper use of the Internet and technology can easily earn money from the Internet. Honestly, no one has to be rich to earn money from the Internet, anyone can use their skills and earn money using the Internet.

Schools were once a means of education, and a diploma proved that.
In other words, a diploma was proof of schooling, not proof of education.

Now, without school, people can achieve greater income by taking advantage of the world's advancements. Those who neglect it will be left behind. By leveraging the internet, people without school can employ those with diplomas. That's how the world works today.

[Ambatman]

I doubt if the internet can help with how to read and write except one already has preliminary knowledge or someone that does.

What matters about information on the web is the source. Followers doesn't equate wisdom.
I have seen accounts on X that wrongly post that the Bitcoin ETFs are the ones who owns the Bitcoin they bought
While for a fact it's owned by investors.

The digital era makes people can access everything they wanted to know including the education from internet this makes the current childrens smarter than their parents because they can learn everything from the internet too and finding jobs too is not hard anymore because as long as you have the particular skill then the internet can provide the jobs according your passion and skill but in my country although we can learn the education from internet but school also still necessary because at school the kids will be educated besides that if want to seeking the jobs the kids should have at least certificate or degree which the kids only can gets these things if they were graduate from school

I remember back in our school times how difficult it was to find knowledge about specific topics. We used to visit libraries renting out books and still our knowledge was limited. We only had idea about what the books were telling us and we didn't knew the different other expects and explanations of things.
After getting the computers for the first time, the offline copies of Encyclopaedia Brittanica and CIA factbook were a treasure trove. When google came into existence and not long after wikipedia, general knowledge became easier to look. With current AI taking over every search, we have exceled in getting knowledge online.
Whether be it gardening or astronomy, AI can answer with reference and in words we understand. The user just need to input proper prompt.
Now no students would suffer for not affording standard books or missing out colleges with top professors.

The advancement of the internet has opened doors that were previously "locked" for many; the content is vast, and with the right search, it's possible to learn anything. Nowadays, anyone with a computer, internet access, knowledge, and dedication can become financially independent. I'm not talking about wealth, but about freedom, working from home, close to family, and most often doing what they truly enjoy.

The internet presents equal opportunities to everybody to search and learn what people go to school to learn and get information without necessarily consulting any professionals. School is no longer the reason why you cannot succeed in life.

Either way I can not deny that the internet is opening up countless new opportunities that were once limited to only a few. In my view, I have seen that minors who spend more time online are able to acquire real digital skills, many great hackers have evolved this way. Also, online courses have made higher education more flexible and accessible for those who are not able to attend traditional classes.

But if you try to establish that we do not need any more schools, that would be very foolish. You may say that there is no dearth of information online but to be successful youneed not only information but also discipline, strategy, hard work &  practical education on how to use the necessary tools. I would say skills are always important, but real life experience, confidence and networking exposure come first in any job. Therefore, the Internet should be used as an equalizer, it has no power to completely replace our traditional education system or related work.

The internet came with an unlimited opportunity. It took education put ofBTC the four corners of the school to electronic devices. Youngsters could become wealthy by consistently creating content. With YouTube, you could learn practically anything. Online jobs are bridging wage inequalities that existed globally. The internet also comes with its own defects, which include easy access to misinformation. Young people are now abandoning lifelong skills for quick money.

I doubt if the internet can help with how to read and write except one already has preliminary knowledge or someone that does.

There are diverse materials on nursery and primary education that can teach anyone how to read and write.  An example is the nursery rhymes that are sung by children to learn how to spell. I know some adults who are engaging in online adult education.

[NurseHub]

The sad truth people leave put when the discussing matters like this is the mere fact that back in the days jobs where only manuel so it required physical application of things or knowledge but today companies do not require you to be physically available before working with you education is no longer key to success but key to knowledge and knowledge creates way for you to succeed but yet you can still be the uncle with all the knowledge yet not successful because success today is action and action today is  selling yourself, according to Garyvee media is the future market and the future is today.

[Dunamisx]

It all depends on how we make use of the chances to learn and acquire something new, In this life, we try to determine what's best for ourselves, the use of the internet could be to the best of our interest, provided we are sensitive enough to know and take advantage of its benefits and not just waste our time on it.

[Vaculin]

There are no excuses anymore that people won't learn new things since the internet is available 24/7. The internet could be a form of informal education while the school is a source of formal education, but if you have the will and consistency to learn, the internet alone can educate you in all aspects, and just apply your learning in your real life because learning becomes highly possible if you adopt learning by doing, learning through experience.

Moreover, the internet also molds different successful people navigating on their own talents and skills. That is why we are seeing people getting rich through internet job offers because they absolutely know how to take advantage of the different opportunities found in the internet.

[slapper]

I do not think about this in the same way now. Education was not replaced by the internet. It revealed the extent of classic education that was pure credentialing. Which is useful information, actually. And it turns out that much of what we were calling knowledge work was merely knowing the right people and possessing the right stamp on your resume

The internet, however, did not form equal markets. A child in Indonesia can study graphic design on YouTube, yes. Will they be able to compete with a person who has a portfolio, references, is fluent in English, has a reliable electricity? Sometimes. Usually not. It is not equal opportunity as we see it. It is a little less unequal opportunity, which is important but not a revolution we continue to talk about

I have learned more out of the random internet strangers than half of my formal education. That's real. I have also spent years of my life in information that was like learning, but was nothing more than consumption. The difference? I had enough baseline education to eventually distinguish them from one another. This is what we do not discuss. The internet is amazing to individuals who have already known how to learn. To the rest, it is overwhelmin

The certificate affair is partly correct. Nowadays you can earn money without qualification. You are also easy to exploit, lack labor protections, and realize by 45 that your skills are no longer required and you lack institutional support

[Furious 7]

The Internet can be beneficial for us but on the one hand it can also be a killer for us because we cannot adapt well and use the Internet in the wrong way.

There is so much information that we can get on the Internet even for information that is not very important. It's all about how we take advantage of the conditions that exist now, someone can develop very rapidly with the Internet if they are smart to use this and use it to change themselves for the better but on the one hand it can also make us slowly killed and cannot develop with it where we can get any information including negative things or even addicted to social media and spend every day surfing without getting anything.
Unfortunately, it seems that now more people are too relaxed in utilizing the existing where they are quite relaxed with the stupid actions done but do not want to change themselves even though this is very worthy of being used to change themselves for the better.

[Findingnemo]

If someone couldn't go to school for financial reason or other reasons can now even complete their studies in one or another ways just via online and they don't even need that graduation to do whatever job they wanted to do. But internet is not full of useful information, probably 10% of the content we consume are useful but the most of them are useless to our life, distracting from what we should do, so limit yourself from what you consume and avoid getting into the trap of social media algorithm that will keep you hooked for hours and hours of soom scrolling.

They still ought to learn those ways on the internet and that is schooling, you skill will get advanced when you keep learning.

Schooling is like training for life and now with the coming of the internet, it has opened the doors to learn more skills taking example of someone who is working hard from being an unnoticed person to becoming a social media influencer through online classes, webinars and online courses. You can still regard such as schooling because it is actually schooling but just in a different way. The internet cannot fully bridge the gap for lack of education but it does make learning easier so anybody can pick up a skill and succeed. People who are making money online like the content creators or freelancers don't need any degree, certificate or big family name or connections but they were still able to learn those skills online in the internet and use it to survive as their source of income.

[Odohu]

You are right about this because the internet have become the biggest educational platform we have seen. You can learn a lot of things in various platforms remotely and can even attend most university programs without visiting the school. There is a popular saying that Youtube is the university of everything which means that anything you want to know is on Youtube. There are also other organized platforms like Udemi, Coursera and others with more tailored to suit individual needs. The internet is a good revolution that have change the educational system when put to proper use.

[TheUltraElite]

This is a good thing about the internet but also has a bad side to it, because of no regulation over content, anyone can post anything and propagate that idea among the masses. Similar to the fake masculinity topics that tend to prey on teenagers until the creator get slammed behind bars.

Because of free speech on the internet, a cesspool of shit content is also there - that we need to acknowledge and consider filtering when showing to younger ones.

If you use the internet properly you can find a ton of useful stuff. But you brain needs to understand how to filter them.
