| What
did you like most about taking an online class? |
| "Perfect
schedule for me, as a single mother of 3 with a
full-time job - i could attend class in the middle
of the night! I liked working on my own, and the
work required forced me to really learn the material." |
"It
gave me more time to work on assignments and be
able to be comfortable doing it. I was able to relax
and enjoy other things at home."
|
"The
experience has allowed me to acquire my degree and
I am most grateful."
|
"I
enjoy the ability to work mostly at my own pace,
and use more of an independent study out-line. Yet,
I also liked having the instructor so easily on-hand
and contactable."
|
"I
liked the flexibility of "Attending" my
class when it's convenient for me....at 11 pm or
8 am. It makes schooling possible for those with
families and who work full time."

| What
advice would you give a student considering an online
course? |
"Be
prepared to spend a lot a lot a lot of time on it!
I've taken 5 and as much as I was grateful for the
opportunity, i found them to be much more work than
a regular class."
|
"You
must be dedicated to do well. It takes a lot of
motivation to do well in this type of course."
|
"You
need to be organized with time. Ask the same questions
and make the same comments you would if you were
in a lecture hall. The online course requires a
great deal of reading since there is no lecture."
|
| "I
would tell another student considering an online
course to be disciplined in their study habits and
in completing the assignments. Because you are not
"beaten over the head" in person if you
don't complete something, you must be disciplined
and organize." |
"Be
prepared to do just as much work as any course you
took on campus. Maybe more because you have to discipline
yourself to do the class work on your own time with
no in-class time."
