I loved them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-taken-any-online-classes#post-96810 Mon, 19 Mar 2012 18:32:22 +0000 Penny Lane 96810@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup! They're not going towards a degree or anything, just for fun (and they're free!) through udacity.com. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-taken-any-online-classes#post-96726 Mon, 19 Mar 2012 17:28:42 +0000 BSB 96726@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, I took a bunch of online courses for my master's program. It's definitely different than the traditional in class courses. I need the classmate and teacher interaction. It's also requires you to be more motivated because you have to do everything on your own. As an undergrad, I needed the study groups to help me with the more difficult concepts. I'm probably going to put my master's program on hold and find a university where I can take on-site classes. I heard it great for some people but not for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-taken-any-online-classes#post-96707 Mon, 19 Mar 2012 16:42:13 +0000 eeh 96707@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Banana: Yup! I had to create some workout plans and other random assignments. They never said I had to FOLLOW the workout plans, just create them. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-taken-any-online-classes#post-96702 Mon, 19 Mar 2012 16:33:34 +0000 calsmom 96702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm taking online classes right now to (finally) finish up my degree. I'm working on my finals right now. It is more difficult than in person, but it is more convenient for me at this point in my life. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-taken-any-online-classes#post-96698 Mon, 19 Mar 2012 16:26:30 +0000 banana 96698@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I totally want to!! But I've always been skeptical about them for some reason. Now I'm gonna definitely check one out!</p> <p>@eeh: Online PE??? Omg that's hilarious. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-taken-any-online-classes#post-96695 Mon, 19 Mar 2012 16:23:16 +0000 joyjoy 96695@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've taken several online courses, and I love the convenience of them! A few of mine required me to drive out to the university to take quizzes and exams, but that still beats driving out a few times a week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-taken-any-online-classes#post-96668 Mon, 19 Mar 2012 15:50:29 +0000 DillonLion 96668@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took several in college. They wound up being a lot more work than a traditional college class. But I enjoyed them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-taken-any-online-classes#post-96649 Mon, 19 Mar 2012 15:30:12 +0000 eeh 96649@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've taken a LOT of online classes which helped me graduate college in 3 years. My favorite was online PE. Yes, really. PE. Still not quite sure how that one worked out but I got an A so I'm happy. I found the classes to be really, really easy as long as I set aside one day a week to be my online class day and do the tests/homework. Sometimes classes would require a midweek discussion or something and those were a major pain to remember but it always worked out. By the end of the first class I got really smart and just opened another tab on my browser during the tests/quizzes and looked up all the answers. Plus, they were all open book (even when they weren't supposed to be). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-taken-any-online-classes#post-96239 Mon, 19 Mar 2012 08:39:17 +0000 sorrycharlie 96239@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've taken several, through URI. They were all based off of the Sakai forums though - so we had to keep up with reading and submit assignments but certain dates. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-taken-any-online-classes#post-96238 Mon, 19 Mar 2012 08:34:57 +0000 His Barista 96238@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did 3. Overall I liked them but did not enjoy doing bath online. Haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-taken-any-online-classes#post-96189 Mon, 19 Mar 2012 07:06:07 +0000 Andrea 96189@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've done these short courses for FSA registration. There wasn't any teacher talking, just slides, and then you take quizzes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-taken-any-online-classes#post-96179 Mon, 19 Mar 2012 06:50:32 +0000 heffalump 96179@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't. A lot of my friends did in college but they ended up not doing so well because it's easier to slack off when you don't ever see your teacher. Eventually I might try it though because I need one more class to become a licensed therapist, but it'll wait until my lo grows up. A little. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-taken-any-online-classes#post-96175 Mon, 19 Mar 2012 06:34:01 +0000 chopsuey 96175@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never taken an online class, but LOVE the idea. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-taken-any-online-classes#post-96145 Mon, 19 Mar 2012 01:27:13 +0000 mrbee 96145@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've started taking an online class on databases... it's pretty interesting. You can make the teacher speak 20% or 50% faster. Wish I could use this feature in real life in school... or heck, even in Real Life!</p> <p>After you watch each video, you can take a quiz... you get up to 100 chances to take the quiz (although it changes each time you take it). That's one of my favorite parts.</p> <p>Have you taken any online classes? How did you like it? </p>
