How effective is online learning?

Online learning has become the norm for education, but does it work? A story by the Washington post says that for students it ranges from pretty good or really difficult. They sent out surveys asking what the students thought about distance-learning. The two answers I found most interesting was that some students Wanted to do in person, while other people particularly didn’t want to see people. The answers were mostly negative, in the way that some people were having trouble, with their lack of support and burden of the occupations they had to attend to at home. This site says to me that online learning is not effective for everyone.
