I have no idea how the AAS course are, but I have taken MANY BSN online courses. I would expect it's a lot of paper writing, group projects and/or quizzes and exams. I enjoy the online the discussion formats, we have to post our initial discussion by Wed, and respond to 2-4 classmates using APA format and proper citing to show we understand the information being discussed. I would imagine it's very similar for the AAS online courses.

when i stared my only options were the exams...which sucks, i would have LOVED to take the online courses even though it cost more money...Health and Safety, Transitions, Micro, A&P, and life span development were easy exams to me, the rest i had to study a lot harder for! =)
