Well, the time has come to wrap up my blog. This semester has been a very enjoyable semester for me. I feel I have learned alot and will use what I have learned in my future writing. I did not know what to expect when I started online classes, but it has been a very good experience. For those of you questioning whether to take online classes I would say go for it.
You need to have some structure, and once in awhile force yourself to do homework when you could be doing other things, but it is worth it in the end. It is really nice to be able to work at your own pace, and when it is convenient for you. There is no punching a clock, or keeping track of hours worked, etc.
As far as learning what you need to learn while taking online classes, I would say that you learn just as much or more than a regular classroom setting because you can go back and look over the material anytime you want to. When you are in a classroom, once the teacher has covered a certain subject, the teacher moves on to the next subject whether you have learned all you need to learn about that subject or not.
I will continue taking online classes as I can afford to. To me, learning is fun and you should never, ever stop learning.
Thank you to my instructor, Nikka, for all of your help!
