I took 6 hours’ worth of online classes in one semester, along w/ working a full-time job, marriage, etc. I was a little stressed at first, but I realized that I had all lines of communication to access my professor.
For my success, when taking online courses, I had to be my own motivator. I also blogged, often, w/ other online classmates. That really helped all of us. We’d e-mail eachother and talk about assignments. The only thing that’s different, of course, is that you can’t see the people in your class. Unless, you all have web-cams.
I won’t lie to you, online courses were a little tough my first time around. I really prefer traditional classroom learning; I like the face-to-face discussion. Communication is key; you have to rely on e-mails and the telephone to work out your problems.
I would take more online classes, in the future. You do save on gas in your car! (Ha!)
