Are you having a difficult time fitting your classes into your already busy schedule? Have you thought about taking online courses?
The Anatomy of a Successful Online Student
- Research shows that successful online students...
- are well-organized and highly motivated,
- have excellent writing skills and study habits,
- are competent and comfortable with computers, webpages, and e-mail
- learn best through independent or collaborative study.
- are able to conduct research online
Online students SHOULD...
have a backup plan in case computer equipment or software fails
Still Not sure if it is right for you?
The University of Georgia has developed a comprehensive Student Online Readiness Tool (SORT) that students can use it to assess their readiness to take online classes. (Note: the Start button is the arrow in the upper-right corner.)
