The Basics

Students who are most successful in online courses are those who are self-motivated, self-disciplined (able to make and stick to a study schedule), 并且他们有良好的技术技能.

Once you are in an online class, we recommend that you take an online tutorial, available on the 在线学生准备教程 page.

An online course 是完全通过互联网进行的吗. 课程资料发布在课程网站上. Most online courses never require meeting on campus. However, there are some professors who do require students to attend an orientation session or take exams on campus. Make sure that you understand the instructor's attendance policy before enrolling in a class that will have meetings that you know you won't be able to attend.

A hybrid course combines online learning with face-to-face class sessions on campus with your professor and your classmates. 校园会议定期举行. However, you do spend less time in the actual classroom than you would in a regular class.

Online classes may even require more weekly work, but they are more convenient.
