Has anyone done the science classes online?

Nursing Students Online Learning

Published

I'm trying to get as many as my pre/coreqs done online, rather than on-campus (I'm a mom of two small ones as well as have a home business, so being on-campus a lot is not possible at this time). I've signed up for my first online science class (Bio for Allied Health) next semester, and I'm also planning on taking Micro online in the summer, as well as A&Ps next year.

Has anyone taken classes with labs online? How does that work, and do you feel you're getting the full education by not having an in-person lab? Do you feel it's harder or easier to do it online, rather than in-person?

Through CCConline, don't you have to attend the actual college to do the lab portion of the course?

No you are not required to attend anything on campus at least not Rio Salado science courses. I have only taken dev psy at CCConline so I am not familiar with their policy with science courses.

I'm taking chem online right now thru the Mississippi virtual community colleges network (msvcc.org). It's completely online and has a home-based lab kit. It is a VERY challenging course, and I wouldn't recommend anyone try to learn chem via distance/self-prompted learning unless you're a very strong student. :o

Distance learning is defintely not for those who are not self motivated and very driven but for those of us up to the challenge it is great.

Good luck with Chem!

I've just finished A&P I & II with CCC (Community Colleges of Colorado). The tuition is $134.90/credit plus a lab fee. It doesn't matter if you're a resident of Colorado or not. It's their online program, so it's irrelevant. I got my books at half.com for ALOT less!! I'm very impressed with their instructors and will take Micro and Chem, also.

This semester I'm taking Human Growth & Dev with them. It's for Deaconess' Psych 200D.

Feel free to PM with any questions. I'm starting my 3rd semester at Deaconess.
