How do online courses work? are they hard? are they worth it? i'm trying to get...?
Question:
it is not difficult. but it does involve a lot of writing and research when it comes to assignments. i am enrolled at the AXIA college at the University of Phoenix. you take 2 classes every nine weeks. each class has 2 days where discussions questions are due, based on your readings. the 3rd assignment is usually an essay or another type of exercise that is extensive.
the advantage to taking classes on line, is you achieve your degree faster. to earn your associates degree, it takes 20 months. the draw back is you do not get a break between class blocks. once you finish your courses at the end of the nine weeks, they start again.
i hope i have helped you. good luck in whatever you decide.
I took several online classes as I worked towards my BA degree in English Education. I have 4 children and online classes allowed me to work from home. You have to be self motivated and stay on task (create a schedule from day 1 and follow it just as if you had to go to class and present it to the professor). It really isn't that hard! Good luck with your classes, and your career!
