I took Psychology over the Internet. (Specially set up by the school). Personally, I loved it! I could do my class when I had the time, and take my time to read and re read something if I didn't quite understand it the first time around.

Give it a shot~~ you'll enjoy it too, I'm sure!

I personally found taking online classes really fulfilling. I took nutrition, and government online. In the fall I'll be taking A&P, Life Span, Art Apprec. And History through a college in Houston all online. This is really great if you have a family. Good luck to you!!!

I absolutely LOVE online classes!!!!

I just finished Medical Terminology a few weeks ago...got an A (100%!!! :) and just finished A&P I last week (another A :). I took both classes at VERY distant schools, and had the exams sent to my local community college, where I went to write the (proctored) midterms and finals. Boy, was I STRESSED taking those exams, but it was exhilerating too!! :)

I found it SO much more enjoyable learning this way, and I think I learned MORE because I was "seeking" more knowledge....rather than dreading studying because I had to sit in a classroom for X hours listening to a professor's monotone. KWIM?? (Nothing puts me to sleep faster LOL)

I registered for 2 more online classes next semester (plus 2 "in-person" classes). I plan to take as many classes as I can online. I'm THRILLED That this option is available...especially with 3 small kids at home! :)

I found it boring. I like the classroom interaction. The courses are fine and I believe a little easier than going in to college. I think if you prefer independant study then online courses are the place for you. If you prefer alot of feedback from peers etc then you may be better off at a college. Good luck either way:)

OH GAWWWD!

I have to take Psychology on-line for Summer 3.

If I could pay them a thousand dollars and take a "C" right now I would do it.

I'd rather take "Music Appreciation,My Greatest Hits"

From Yoko Ono!

Peeps: That is pretty a pretty drastic thought; Yoko Ono teaching Music Appreciation. You would probably have to get on a ladder and read through a peep whole about the Music Titiles!

I love Online Courses but do miss my study buddies oh so much. It is wonderful in taking an online class when a study partner and you can, at a minimum, phone over some support to one another.

A lot of people I know love their online classes-although someone told me she expected them to be easier than they were. A lot of the learning is self taught, so if you do well at that, then go for it. I am taking History I online and I WISH I could take Speech online, but alas...LOL! :)

my LPN/ADN merge class is online,it's great because I choose when class is. We do have clinical hours as well, but online really works if you have family,a job or a life.I wish I could take the remainder of my classes online

Consensus: On-line ....Good!

I'm so psyched. since I was admitted to the honors program at school, I get to register before anyone else at school.

ONLINE Pathophysiology and Nutrition classes, here I come!!!!
