Should I Take an Online Class?

Last updated on September 6, 2013 by Sozo Staff Leave a Comment

Many students believe that taking classes online is a quick way to get easy credits, but this usually is not the case. Online courses are definitely not for everyone, and, depending on the class, you might end up putting more time into it than a traditional course. However, the benefits of online courses, including lower costs and being able to work at your own pace, can be a huge plus, so you should consider a few points before deciding if an online course is right for you.

First, do you feel you require face to face communication in order to learn? Many people do need direct verbal contact in order to retain new information, but, oftentimes, this is not available with an online course.

Secondly, do you feel you are a strong reader? This doesn’t mean that you must be a fast reader, but it does require that you retain information the first time you read it, often without outside clarification.

Next, do you have good time management skills? Online courses allow you to work at your own pace, but if you don’t manage your time wisely, you risk not completing the assignments on time, so time management skills are a definite requirement.

And finally, do you have a quiet place to work? Many students forget how hectic their home life can be until they find themselves struggling to concentrate on their schoolwork for an online class.

If you don’t have a calm workspace and if traveling to a library or cafe seems arduous to you, you’d probably be better off in a traditional classroom. However, if you do meet these qualifications and are willing to put in the work, an online class could be a viable option for you.
