A successful student…
… Takes responsibility for their own learning
Online learning can be a powerful, stimulating, engaging experience
for the student who can work and think independently. However, since most-if
not all- of the learning takes place on your own time, you will not have the
kind of direct supervision you would in a classroom. Online learning therefore
requires a significant commitment from you. All education comes down to what
you’re willing to investigate in the experience- this is particularly true in
the online environment. Commitment, self-discipline and self-motivation are all
key qualities to ensuring success in an online course.
… Is comfortable and confident with written communication
Reading and writing are the basic of most online courses, so
it’s critical that you feel comfortable with this form of communication. While some
courses contain modules that include videos or other activities, all of them
require significant amounts of reading. And nearly all of your communication
with your classmates you’re your instructor will be in writing. If these are
weak areas for you, you will want to address those issues prior to enrolling or
while enrolled-in an online course. The PSU writing center is available to
assist you.
… is willing to be a member of a learning community.
Choose the right.
