What broader social result does the privatization of education through technology lead to in the story?

Learning may get cut off from collective culture

The governing concept is the social cost of privatised, home-based education. In the story, Margie receives instruction alone in her house, and there is no ordinary school where children meet regularly, cooperate, form friendships, or share experiences. Technology makes lessons accessible and individually scheduled, but it can also separate learning from the collective culture created by a classroom community. Option D is correct because it captures this broader result without claiming that education disappears altogether. Options A and B reverse the story’s direction, while C is too extreme: Margie continues to study, but the social dimension of education becomes weak or absent. The point is not that technology is always harmful, but that it needs social balance.
