Profile of a successful student
A SUCCESSFUL STUDENT…..
….TAKES RESPONSIBILITY FOR His/hers own learning
Online learning can be a powerful, stimulating, engaging experience
for the student who can work and think independently. However, since most-if
not all-of the learning takes place on your own time, you will not have the
kind of direct supervision you would in a classroom. Online learning therefore requires
a significant commitment from you. All education comes down to what you’re willing
to invest in the experience-this is particularly true in the online environment.
Commitment, self-discipline and self-motivation are all key qualities to
ensuring success in an online course!
….is comfortable and confident with written communication
Reading and writing are the basis of most online course, so it’s critical
that you feel comfortable with this form of communication. While some courses
contain modules that include videos or other activities, all of them require significant
amounts of reading. And nearly all of your communication with your classmates
and your instructor will be in writing. If these are weak areas for you, you
will want to address those issues prior to enrolling or while enrolled in an
online course. The psu writing center is
available to assist you.
… is willing to be a member of a learning community.
Choose
the right!!
