I have spent 12 weeks in this class and I have learned a great deal of information. I think learn online is a series of steps. Once you reach a certain level you have to move into another subject. You begin to learn about that subject and each subject will build upon the last. When you feel that you lost or don’t quite understand, threaded discussions are formed to help you to understand what is going on. The instructor also follows their students so they can understand the material that is before them. As an asynchronous student it is essential that students will be able to follow the material and be able to converse with their peers. Students also must be free to develop learning skills that will help them in their class.
It is great to experience different ideas in an online classroom. I think I have learned many things in this particular class. It was a bit more difficult than most but I felt like that mountain climber who just needs to reach the top. I fell a couple of times but in the end I saw the point through the clouds. Finally, I am out of the clouds and I am moving forward.
Distance education is going to continue to evolve and new ideas will be implemented to make classes better. I am happy that I have had these experiences and look forward to applying what I learned in this class to my future endeavors.
