Are online courses harder than a regular community college class?
Question:
Answer:
Not if you're motivated. You will generally have the same book and other materials if they are the same class.
It depends on your learning style. If you learn best with lectures a community college class would probably be better for you. However, if you are capable of just reading and understanding, youd do fine in online courses. Plus they are more self-paced, so you can work semi at your own speed but still meet deadlines.
The main thing with online classes is you have to be motivated to actually sit down and work. Otherwise you'll never get anything done. Don't view it as a blow-off class just because you dont actually have to GO to class.
Not harder, just different. You have to be an independent learner and not need the interaction of face to face discussion.
check this link - it is the site of a very well recognized university in Canada that has been doing distance education for more than 30 years. You should find good information there. Do be careful of online courses. Not all of them are worth the money.
entirely depends on the program as well as the classes themselves
