Time Management:
- Set Aside Time
Although you do not have to sit in a classroom, you will need to devote a certain number of hours per week to your online course. Be sure to set aside time each week for your online activities, reading, studying, and homework.
- Create a Schedule
Take note of the deadlines in your course and create a schedule that will ensure you will complete your work on time.
- Be Proactive
Waiting until the last minute is a recipe for disaster. What if your internet goes down? Browser crashes? You can't find the file? Complete and turn in your work early to avoid stressful situations, and the possibility of missing a deadline.
- Use Our Computers
Have some time between classes? Hop online in our Student Computer Center to get some extra study time in!
Study Skills:
- Find a Study Space (and Time)
Find a place and time where you can be free of distractions for the duration of your study sessions, whether that be a particular room in your house or a nearby coffee shop. If possible, commit to the same time/place every week.
