			<description><![CDATA[ Been doing online courses for almost three years in October and I should be finished with my bachelors degree in December. Personally I love doing the online
courses because I am lazy and do not want to get my ass out of bed to attend a lecture. It is also nice that a majority of your tests or exams will be open
book since the school has no way to regulate or check if your cheating, however a majority of your assignments will end up being essay questions or large
projects. The way a normal... ]]></description>

for a self-paced class. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I&#39;ve taken lots of classes online. I took Astronomy and found it difficult to not have that much interaction with my instructor. I managed an A, but it was
rough because my instructor wasn&#39;t great. I took an Oceanography class that I LOVED and learned so much. But it was the professor that made it interesting.
<br>
<br>
I found most of the English, Philosophy, Sociology, etc classes seem to have a LOT of writing. My sociology class had a paper about what I considered to be
complete... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ They have pros and cons...
<br>
<br>
If you&#39;re a procrastinator, they are a BITCH... and yes, they do give you more work!
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
However, it IS easier to cheat... lol That is.. if you take tests/quizes on the computer.
<br>
<br>
I basically just looked for the answers to everything in my book during the tests and never had to study/learn anything... and I earned all A&#39;s.
<br>
<br>
<br>
Yay me!! ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ About online classes, the only thing I really liked about them was being able to be on my own schedule from home. I was a good, disciplined student already,
but online classes kicked my ass. Everyone else is right that you&#39;ll work harder for your grade than you would in a regular class. It&#39;s <em>very</em>
easy to get behind, and I do think instructors tend to make the load heavier for online classes. Worst online class experience was one that involved several
group projects. That was... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Yeah, I&#39;ll chime in with the rest: online classes usually require a lot of busy work. Great if you&#39;re disciplined and like to work on your own time,
but the downside is the amount of work. It&#39;s just a matter of your study methods and time requirements. ]]></description>

my grades of my computer subjects in the past.

			<description><![CDATA[ I took a couple of online classes, but I vow not to take another one. I&#39;m a procrastinator, and I always focused on the classes I took in school and failed
to develop a schedule as to when I&#39;d do my online courses. If you set aside the time for them, they should be fine- the professors for the classes I took
posted the notes for the readings, the syllabus, and just organized everything week-to-week. My workload wasn&#39;t too bad- I just had to post once or twice a
week on a... ]]></description>

lets you set co-ordinates, etc. It&#39;s actually quite fun to mess around with. ]]></description>

I would never have wanted to take Philosophy online...sometimes it takes a skilled professor up in your face to make you understand what the hell Nietzsche was
talking about.

Good luck! ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Online classes aren&#39;t harder than a traditional class.  Usually the online classes are for 9 - 12 weeks, the traditional semester is 15-16 weeks, so you
have to cram the same amount of work into a shorter time period.  That&#39;s why they seem like they have so much work in them.

I tried to do an Intro to Macroeconomics course online and stopped - it&#39;s bad enough I don&#39;t understand basic economics, it&#39;s worse that I have to
teach it to myself.

Good luck. ]]></description>
