You listen to audio clips of the teacher and are given a host of instructions to make sure you get all the files you need - PowerPoints, lecture packets, etc. Quizzes are online but exams are done at the college's main campus. There are discussion boards so you're never entirely alone in your classwork. It's very you-oriented; you have to take up a lot more responsibility than if you were sitting in a face-to-face classroom course. No one tells you to open the books and makes sure you do it, you've gotta log in, read the lecture PowerPoints and fill in the notes and read the material yourself. You have communication with the instructor and the other students, of course, so it's not bad. I'm only in my third day of it, so I'll have to give you a proper evaluation later on. Good luck with the exams that you do have to take!
Two weeks; May 28. Just got my cap and gown and first cord today. I do have to take some finals, but they're in classes I don't need to graduate. Online courses, huh? How do they work? I'm hoping to take some of my college classes that way.
That'd be awesome - how far away is graduation day? Also, I just did my first couple assignments for my first online course. Definitely different, and it'll definitely take some getting used to. Definitely.
Trying to exempt my finals (and boost some grades) so I don't have to go to school until Graduation day.
It goes well, it goes well. Just finished my first class of my second semester of college ever! Using their internet, 'cause it's much faster than my own. And yourself?
Hullo there! How goes it?
Howdy!
