ON LINE yea's and nay's

I really like the on-line modules. I find it easier to get to a computer and submit work. I can work at my own pace and have time to think and possibly do more research to complete assignments. It sure saves time and gas too. I know there may always be a need for a face to face meeting, but the on-line is good and in some cases more informative than some meetings where lessons may not always go according to plan or someone goes off on a long winded tangent and wastes instructional time. This way it is cut and dry so to speak, you read the material and follow the assignment. The face to face meeting should or could be reserved for tests and finals, I think that would be good. My brother has a business class at Kenasaw State and he does all of his classes on line. The one face to face he has is to take the final exam. Technology in my opinion has become such that it will allow for classes to be done on-line without losing a lot, where traditionally that would not have been true. Face to face meeting are still important for obvious reasons, handouts, introductions and exams. As the economy get tighter and money as well, the convinance of on-line seems to be in my opinion the way to go.

  1. I agree with all of your reasons for liking on line classes. I like it for some things, but not for everything. I had never blogged before this year and never did the instant message stuff. Hopefully I will become a better tech person for using all this.
