I am taking 3 classes this semester: Chemistry, Human Anatomy and Physiology II, and Nutrition. I am trying to maintain full time hours at work so I decided to take Nutrition online.
I have tried online classes in the past and they are definately NOT for me. It's not an issue with discipline, it's my learning style. I really need to a lecture where I can interact with the professor and other students, and most importantly take my own notes. My nutrition class is easy, our tests are online. We have 60 minutes to complete each one, they cover 4 chapters, and we have unlimited attempts to take the test during the month or so it is available to us.
The thing is, I am not doing any of the study guides she gives because I don't need to. I have enough time to look up the answers to the questions on the tests and I score well. The problem with that is I am not learning anything.
I was looking forward to taking this class so I could learn how to eat better....
Does anyone who has any experience with online classes have any advice or learning strategies they can share with me?
