Distance education is becoming a common strategy in higher education and therefore, it is having a great impact inside the learning environments since the global pandemic. This paper is a call for the 21st-century educators to apply the use of digital tools within the virtual classroom so that learners achieve the skills and abilities required in a liquid society where information runs through the network and is delivered to users as fast as possible. MOOCs are helping virtual instructors to include citizens from all the hidden areas of the countries that are using it. Furthermore, LMS are being implemented so that educators keep track of the learning process of students. This essay discusses the possible risks of VR such as AD presented in a society where learners want to deliver their tasks just to get a good grade rather than acquiring the competencies that the follow up activities designed by the tutor intend to.
