Hello! good thursday evening! (LATE evening...)
Well this semester I decided to take 2 of my classes online. I thought that taking a couple online courses would make it easier for me to work full time and complete assigments (and maybe have some type of a life).
Last semester I had live classes tuesdays and thursdays, from 10am to 7:30pm! the other five days of the week I would work. THAT means no.days.off. I would have one day off a month, and it would only be because school would be closed for some type of holiday. So you maybe see my thought process in signing up for 2 online classes?
I have come to realize that an online class is twice the work. Why? well because you dont have actual class time. So, there's me, registering for classes thinking that im going to have so much more time to do homework and be able to easily work full time, and only physically be at school for three hours tuesdays and thursdays. (math just does not seem like a good online class...). YES. I have more availability for work, but I really don't have anymore time than I though I would...
Online classes= SO MUCH HOMEWORK
My biggest challenge is knowing everything that I need to do in a week. It is very hard to prioritize what is important to do first, and then next, and on what days, but oh, what about that assignment!
Despite all of the challenges of having two online classes, I must say I thourouly enjoy them. I enjoy completing my courses online. Sure, I have to try and work fourty hours a week, and sure, I have SO MUCH HOMEWORK..... but at least I enjoy completing it :)
I will definatly be doing more classes online
Just maybe not two at a time :)
Yes this is so true these classes are WAY harder!! I do more work in this class and my other online class than my other classes combined. This one has the most work of any of my classes by far!! I though English would be easy!! I have taken several english class in the past but this one makes me look dumb.
