I'm considering taking this as an online class this fall but wanted to know of your experiences. Has anyone taken this class online before if so, was it harder online for you. Would you recommend someone taking this class online? Thanks

I took general psychology online, at a local community college. I did my research on the instructor & class before registering. My class was very organized (1 chapter of reading + 2 mini projects w/ replies + exam ... every 2 weeks) and progressed at a relaxing pace. If you can, I would recommend taking it on campus. I think group discussion will enhance your learning experience with a class such as psychology.

I took it as a five week course online. It was a piece of cake. Everyone learns differently, but I can tell you I am SO GLAD I did not take it in a physical campus setting as a regular class, it would have driven me INSANE.

I took an online Psychology class this past Spring. We read a chapter a week, posted a response to a discussion topic and had two main assignments. It was pretty easy! I would just be sure to research the instructor before choosing.

Psychology is an easy class period, online should be no different. I had a wonderful professor who had a great sense of humor and I enjoyed the class. The material was on par with high school psychology.
