Is Online Right for Me?

Online learning will it work for you?

Earning a degree is …

a high priority in my life right now
something I should do someday
not particularly important to my life goals

My work schedule …

often changes, never knowing when free time will be available
allows for some free time, but e-Learning would be more convenient
allows plenty of time to attend classes that meet at the same time every week

New technologies (i.e. computers, fax machines, voicemail, etc,) …

are exciting and challenging
are frustrating to learn
are frightening and difficult to adjust

As a reader, I consider myself …

better than average, having little difficulty understanding written text
okay, but often need to read material several times for comprehension
less than average - comprehending written text is very difficult

What is most important for me to get full benefit from a course is …

spending time on my own studying and reading
preparing for class independently, but with some supervision
having interaction in a classroom with the other students and the instructor present

When it comes to work habits, I most often …

get my work done ahead of time
can finish my work on time without reminders
need someone to prompt me to finish the task

An instructor should be …

an occasional resource if I need help
a good facilitator who is available to help me whenever I have a problem
a constant provider of extra help and available every class

I need instructors to give me …

occasional feedback on assignments, but I can continue without immediate feedback
occasional feedback to keep me on track
immediate feedback on every assignment or I cannot complete the next assignment

I am most comfortable learning …

on my own independently
by listening or viewing an instructor's lecture
as part of a classroom interacting with the other students

If I had to attend regular classroom courses …

I would not be able to take classes
I would be able to attend classes but with great difficulty
I would have no problem attending classes
