On-line classes

VCRs were first used to "time shift". You could save a television program and then watch it at your convenience. On-line classes offer that same opportunity. Sometimes the on campus class is offered at a time that is inconvenient for you (you're working, for example). The on-line class offers you the chance to take the class when it fits your schedule.

On-line classes aren't "easier", nor are they less time consuming - if a class takes two hours in the classroom plus homework....the on line class will take two hours in front of the computer plus homework...keep in mind that a 5 minute lecture is one page of printed text.

Orientation for online classes is held before registration. There will be an orientation today (Wednesday Nov 16) at 10:30 and again offered 3 times tomorrow (Thursday Nov 17) - 10:30, 2:30, and 5:30.
